Rhea is the second largest moon of Saturn . It was discovered in 1672 by Giovanni Cassini . Rhea is an icy body with a density of about 1.24 gm/cm 3 . This low density indicates that it has a rocky core taking up less than one-third of the moon's mass with the rest composed of water-ice. Rhea's features resemble those of Dione , with dissimilar leading and trailing hemispheres, suggesting similar composition and histories. The temperature on Rhea is -174°C in direct sunlight and between -200°C and -220°C in the shade. |
