A- estimated "at" needs noun right after it.
B- "being" gives the expression as if object has active control over its size. Distorts the meaning
C- "that" distorts the meaning.
Estimate itself is no more than half a mile in diameter
D- ing-modifier modifying the evidence
E - correct

This question tests verb tense , modifier concept and meaning
Evidence of the relatively small, icy object, estimated at no more than half a mile in diameter, was spotted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's robot spacecraft Cassini that has been orbiting Saturn since 2004.
a. at no more than half a mile in diameter, was spotted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's robot spacecraft Cassini that has been = verb tense has been correct , but use of estimated at wrong
meaning change - evidence is orbiting
b. as being less than half a mile in diameter, was spotted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's robot spacecraft Cassini that has been = verb tense has been correct , but use of estimated as being wrong
meaning change - evidence is orbiting
c. that it is no more than half a mile in diameter, was spotted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's robot spacecraft Cassini, which has been verb tense has been correct , but use of estimated that it wrong , no requirement of it
meaning change - evidence is orbiting
d. to be no more than half a mile in diameter, was spotted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's robot spacecraft Cassini,
No present perfect tense , hence wrong
e. to be no more than half a mile in diameter, was spotted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's robot spacecraft Cassini, which has been
Use of Which correctly modifies Cassini , meaning is intact - Cassini is orbiting , correct verb tense
