Enceladus-PIA07758.jpgThe "Fountains" of Enceladus56 visiteRecent Cassini images of Saturn's moon Enceladus backlit by the sun show the fountain-like sources of the fine spray of material that towers over the South Polar Region. This image was taken looking more or less broadside at the "tiger stripe" fractures observed in earlier Enceladus images. It shows discrete plumes of a variety of apparent sizes above the limb of the moon.

TheRings-G-Ring-PIA07643.jpgThe G-Ring's "Glow"56 visiteOriginal caption:"Saturn's G-Ring glows like a neon garland in this lovely narrow angle camera image from Cassini. The comparison between the diffuse outer boundary and the sharp inner edge of this Ring, which consists of fine, dust-sized icy particles, is particularly noteworthy. Close Cassini views such as this should provide Ring scientists with clues about how this Ring is produced and confined.
The G-Ring extends from 166.000 to 173.200 Km (about 103.100 to 107.600 miles) from Saturn's center. (remember: Saturn is 120.500 Km [about 74.900 miles] wide at its equator).
The image was taken in visible light with the Cassini narrow-angle camera on Oct. 24, 2005, at a distance of approx. 2,1 MKM (about 1,3 MMs) from Saturn. The image scale is 12 Km (about 8 miles) per pixel".
