  • Great Video! Thanks A Lot! I think Enceladus is one of the most mysterious moons in our Solar System! It's quite small, only ~320 miles in diameter, but large enough to maintain hydrostatic equilibrium (massive enough to pull itself into a sphere), yet it's geologically active! It has these sulchi (grooves) with cryovolcanoes that eject water-ice plumes, that contains salt and other compounds that can harbor life. It also has the highest albedo (surface reflection) of any moon. Such a mystery!
