Geyser Basin of Enceladus in 3-D

Cassini enthüllt 101 Geysire auf dem Saturnmond Enceladus This graphic shows a 3-D model of 98 geysers whose source locations and tilts were found in a Cassini imaging survey of Enceladus’ south polar terrain by the method of triangulation. While some jets are strongly tilted, it is clear the jets on average lie in four distinct “planes“ that are normal to the surface at their source location. Dotted vectors indicate five jets whose sourc
