Saturn’s Icy Moon Enceladus

Nowhere is this more apparent than on Enceladus, Saturn’s sixth largest moon, which also possesses some of the most interesting characteristics in the outer Solar System. These include long veins of blue ice that resemble stripes, not to mention amazing plumes of water ice that have been spotted periodically blasting out of the moon’s southern pole. These, in turn, raise the possibility of liquid water beneath the surface, and possibly even life!
