Labtayt Sulci on Saturn's Enceladus
NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE
Some surface features on Saturn's moon Enceladus appear to roll like a conveyor belt. This interpretation comes from images taken by the Cassini spacecraft in October. This unusual form of asymmetric tectonic activity likely provides clues to Enceladus's internal structure, which may include subsurface seas. Cassini captured this composite of 28 images after swooping by the ice-spewing moon.
