Enceladus (2) - detail mgnf and HR

The global mosaic of Enceladus was created from 21 false-color frames taken during the Cassini spacecraft's close approaches to Enceladus on March 9 and July 14, 2005. Images taken using filters sensitive to ultraviolet, visible and infrared light (spanning wavelengths from 338 to 930 nnmts) were combined to create the individual frames.

The mosaic is an orthographic projection centered at 46,8° South Lat. and 188° West Long. and has an image scale of 67 mt (about 220 feet) per pixel. The original images ranged in resolution from 67 mt per pixel to 350 mt were taken at distances ranging from 11.100 to 6.300 Km from Enceladus.
