fremde welten Enceladus, Südpolargebiet "Numerous plumes are seen rising from long tiger-stripe canyons across Enceladus' craggy surface. Several ice jets are even visible in the shadowed region of crescent Enceladus as they reach high enough to scatter sunlight. Other plumes, near the top of the above image, appear visible just over the moon's sunlit edge." (Ausschnitt aus dem Bild, aufgenommen von Cassini am 21.
