Timeline at: Planetary Society Weblog: Cassini flies within 25 kilometers of Enceladus tomorrow

Coming up now:

Quote:
[12:52:40 PDT; 15:52:40 EDT; 19:52:40 UTC] Enceladus enters Saturn's shadow
Enceladus will remain in eclipse for 2.5 hours.
45 minutes past closest approach

From the inbound: Planetary Photojournal: Focus on Enceladus


Quote:
Ring shadows line the face of distant Saturn, providing an exquisite backdrop for the brilliant, white sphere of Enceladus. This icy moon, with its heavily modified surface and towering plume of icy material, is a target of intense study for Cassini during its Equinox mission.
