Impressive columns, big and small, they pulverize water ice from multiple locations along the area that has happened in calling “Streaks of Tiger”, close to the south Pole of the moon of Saturn, Encelado. The Streaks of Tiger are fissures that throw columns vaporizadas of particles of ice, water vapor and organic materials. This mosaic was generated using two images high resolution captured by the camera of narrow angle on board of the probe Cassini when it happened on these columns on November 21, 2009.
