PHOTO OF THE DAY... Check out this awesome, unaltered pic of Saturn's moon Enceladus (which may harbor a subsurface water ocean) with the planet's rings in the background. The image was taken by NASA's Cassini spacecraft...which celebrated the 10-year anniversary of its flyby of Jupiter last month. Cassini flew past the Jovian world on December 30, 2000, and entered orbit around Saturn on July 1, 2004. Click here for more details on the photo.
