Adaptive image coding is currently being used by the [[Cassini-Huygens]] craft to relay images from [[Saturn]]. Only about 5% of the images show any visual signs of damage. As the spacecraft has an error correcting [[Solid-state drive|Flash drive]] and long timeframes between image taking events, damaged images like this can be resentpresent. It is assumed that the number of damaged, but unrecoverable images from the Cassini mission is about 0.01% or less.

[[Image:Damaged N00153918.jpg|thumb|center|450px|The Cassini camera was pointing toward DIONE at a distance of approximately 548,210 kilometers. The image was taken using the CL1 and CL2 filters on May 17, 2010.]]
