Saturn: Dirty Rings and a Clean Moon

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

Saturn's rings and its moon Enceladus are both made mostly of water ice. However, many of Saturn's ring particles are coated with dark dust, while Enceladus's surface appears bright and clean. Scientists are still working to understand why the moon remains pristine while the rings accumulate dust.
