Strange Dust Cloud Found Around Enceladus
NASA’s Cassini spacecraft has discovered an unusual cloud of particles around Enceladus, one of Saturn’s many moons. They could be stray particles from Saturn’s outermost E-ring or a previously unseen dust cloud. The discovery is so interesting to researchers that they’ll have Cassini change its altitude on its next flyby – scheduled for July 14 – lowering the spacecraft so that it passes only 175 km (108 miles) above the surface of the moon.
