Geysers of Enceladus showing cryovolcanism near the South Pole of Enceladus
Artists concept of the geysers of Enceladus, showing the cryovolcanism near the South Pole of Enceladus, the 6th largest moon of Saturn, and one of the few moons on which active eruptions of any kind have been witnessed. Enceladus is one of the best possibilities for life in our Solar System, based on the presence of salt water ice, which commonly only occurs in large bodies of water; it is thought that it may harbor a large underground ocean, possibly similar to Europa. Enceladus is also believed to contribute material to Saturns E-ring by blasting water, ice and debris from fractures where the crust is thinner. These fractures are significantly warmer than their surroundings on the South Pole, and they occur in roughly parallel lines, leading to their nickname, Tiger Stripes

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the geysers of Enceladus, a moon orbiting Saturn. The artist's concept vividly depicts cryovolcanism near the South Pole of Enceladus, where active eruptions have been witnessed - a rarity among moons in our Solar System. With its salt water ice and potential underground ocean akin to Europa, Enceladus holds great promise for hosting life forms. The moon also plays a role in Saturn's E-ring by expelling water, ice, and debris through fractures known as Tiger Stripes. In this digitally generated artwork, we are transported to the surface of Enceladus. The image portrays parallel lines of warmer fractures emitting steam and mist into space. It is an imaginative representation that combines elements of science fiction with scientific knowledge about cryovolcanoes and hydrodynamics. The print offers a glimpse into the mysteries of our universe – from exogeology to astrobiology – inviting us to contemplate the possibilities beyond Earth. Brian Christensen's creation beautifully captures the awe-inspiring beauty and scientific significance of this icy world.
