Title:
Equal-Area Photomosaics of Rhea.
Description:
This is a fine example of the U.S. Geological Survey’s 1988 map or photomosaics of Rhea, Saturn’s second largest moon. The map features six equal-area photomosaics on the Lambert azimuthal projection. These include the South Polar Region and the North Polar Region. A diagram of Rhea relative to the size of the United States is included in the upper right quadrant, while the lower right quadrant features a scaled diagram of Saturn, its major rings, and the orbit of Rhea and of the Earth-Moon system.
The image processing and mosaic compilation for this map were done by Ella M. Lee. This map or photomosaic was prepared for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration and published by the U.S. Geological Survey as
Atlas of Saturnian Satellites Topographic Series Sr 10M CM
map I-1921 sheet 2.

Shipping rates are not negotiable. Items are shipped within three business days of receiving payment. We are happy to consolidate shipping where possible. The following shipping options are available:
1. FedEx Overnight (45 USD). USA Only. Signature Required.
2. FedEx Ground or Home Delivery (15 USD). USA Only. 1 – 10 days. If your address is a P.O. Box and cannot ship FedEx we will ship USPS Priority and, while we ship promptly, recent postal personnel cutbacks mean that delivery may take time. Signature Required.

4. We can use your FedEx Account.
Customs:
International buyers are responsible for paying duty and taxes on delivery. DHL or FedEx will contact the buyer by telephone to arrange tax payment if it is levied. Duty varies by country and we cannot predict the amount you will be charged. Some countries are duty free, others are not. Typically, a customs duty and/or VAT tax will be assessed on all parcels to continental Europe. Sometimes duty or tax is due in China, but is seems very random. Hong Kong, Singapore, Korea, and Taiwan have never assessed duty on a map we shipped. Maps shipped to the UK should be duty free as educational materials, but from time to time duty of 5% is assessed incorrectly by the UK customs agents.
Insurance:
All shipments are insured privately against loss and damage. All of our shipments require a signature for insurance purposes.
