The Desert at Night

So what we have here is an aerial view of desert, obviously taken at night. Can anyone guess the location?

The Grand Canyon?

Try again.

Tunisia?

Nope.

Montana badlands?

Huh-uh.

What you're looking at is Enceladus, one of the moons of Saturn, as recently photographed by the Cassini space probe. Looks like good mountain-biking terrain to me!

Off-road biking goes off-world.

I guess you'd need a mountain bike massive enough not to break into orbit the first ramp you hit.
