Some time in the future we will have a manned flight and land on one of Saturn's moons. Yeah, it about a 1000 years or so! The detail in those pictures is incredible.

This photos are not just spectacular but it was really amazing and unbelievable. This is such a good reminder though of how ignorant we are about our universe and what wonders there are yet to explore. Agree.

Scientists believe that there are liquid reservoirs underneath the moons surface. Fascinating... Great photos by the way. Ray The plumes are created by giant geysers spewing out water ice particles.

From the looks of it, I’m guessing there have been traces of water here. The first photo is just spectacular, the second one looks a bit weird though.

Except this terrain looks much rougher. Very cool pictures of Enceladus. Keep them coming.

If I'm not mistaken, these pictures depict one of the moons of the planet Saturn. Interestingly, the plumes in your first picture are allegedly responsible for the outermost ring of Saturn. Cool, I learned something new today! The pictures are awesome, by the way. Thanks for sharing. Best wishes, Jordan M. I happened upon your site while looking for the mythological Enceladus on Google.

I had to google 'Enceladus' to find out what I was looking at but thanks for sharing! The sharp detail on the 3rd photo is pretty amazing too.
