Cassini Enceladus flyby

Cassini captured some spectacular images of Saturn's moon Enceladus during a flyby Nov. 21st. They show evidence of cryovolcanism - geysers spewing frozen particles etc.









Pretty cool and shows how active our solar system really is.

Well LL it seems to have worked just fine!:) You will be glad to know!

frustating thing about these encounters is how long it takes to hear about what info has been sent,but Cassini DID survive!{I think Kevstars first Mission that captured his imagination was Cassini}
