Evening On Enceladus


Courtesy of NASA: Enceladus hangs like a single bright pearl against the golden-brown canvas of Saturn and its icy rings. Visible on Saturn is the region where daylight gives way to dusk. Above, the rings throw thin shadows onto the planet. Icy Enceladus is 505 kilometers (314 miles) across.
