Cassini Flyby Shows Enceladus Venting
Enormous ice jets are erupting from Saturn's moon Enceladus. The Cassini spacecraft captured dramatic photographs of giant plumes of ice rising from long 'tiger-stripe' canyons on Enceladus's surface. Several ice jets are even visible in the shadowed region of crescent Enceladus, as they reach high enough to scatter sunlight.
