Rings and Enceladus
A crescent Enceladus appears with Saturn’s rings in this Cassini view of the moon.
The famed jets of water ice emanating from the south polar region of the moon are faintly visible here. They appear as a small white blur below the dark south pole, down and to the right of the illuminated part of the moon’s surface in the image.
The image was taken in visible light with the Cassini spacecraft narrow-angle camera on Jan. 4, 2012 from a distance of approximately 291,000 kilometers from Enceladus.
