Ever since the Cassini–Huygens satellite mission flew past Saturn’s moon Enceladus, it has been one of the hot topics in astronomy. It has continued to reveal itself in strange and unusual ways that have provided quandaries for researchers to puzzle over.When Enceladus was first photographed by Cassini it revealed ice
geysers that were spewing matter out in to the surrounding space. It
was discovered that this matter helped to make up Saturn’s E-ring.
Following that, it was found that a...

Unlike any other moon in our solar system, Iapetus is in the same shape
today as it was when it was just a few hundred million years old; a

And every image that’s been returned of Titan’s clouds, lakes, rivers, and other landforms is proving them right. In 2005 Cassini’s imaging radar discovered...
