Caption NASA:"This image is part of an observation designed to view the moon's plume of icy particles at a moderately High Phase Angle.

The "Phase Angle" is the angle formed between the Sun, the target being imaged, and the Spacecraft, and it ranges from 0 to 180°. Tiny particles, like those in the plume, brighten substantially at high phase angles.
This view was taken from a vantage point 37° above the Equator of Enceladus (about 504 Km, or approx. 313 miles across). Reflected light from Saturn dimly illuminates the moon's dark side.

The image was taken in visible light with the Cassini Spacecraft narrow-angle camera on Sept. 17, 2008. The view was acquired at a distance of approx. 262.000 Km (such as about 163.000 miles) from Enceladus and at a Phase Angle of 140°.
Image scale is roughly 2 Km (5137 feet) per pixel".
