What is the angular diameter of Saturn (in degrees) as seen from the surface of Rhea?
In 2015, researchers concluded that Enceladus's subsurface ocean is probably global, instead of just being restricted to the south polar region. What had the Cassini spacecraft found, that led them to their conclusion?   a Enceladus wobbles slightly as it orbits Saturn, more so than it could if its ice shell were mostly frozen to the rocky interior. b Enceladus is absorbing so much water (which is ejected by Saturn from its atmosphere) that there must be a global ocean under its icy surface. c The number of large, lava-spewing volcanoes on Enceladus's surface is so high that they can only be the result of liquid water under the whole surface. d The magnetic field of Enceladus is so strong that it can only be explained by a global ocean of salty water under the surface.
