Naiad OR Thalassa as seen by Voyager 2. The image is smeared due to the combination of long exposure needed at this distance from the Sun, and the rapid relative motion of the moon and Voyager. Hence, the moon appears more elongated than in reality.
NOTE! This image circulates on the NASA website and on the internet as being Naiad, but an almost identical one (apart from slightly different processing), with the same noise, is said to be Thalassa on the same websites.

Subsequently the brightness was processed and the image cropped somewhat
