SPACE-SATURN-ENCELADUS
Recent 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 released 28 Novemebr, 2005, 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. The Cassini-Huygens mission is a cooperative project of NASA, the European Space Agency and the Italian Space Agency. AFP PHOTO/HO/NASA/JPL/GETTY OUT
