The three spot detections in the movie were obtained by Cassini's ultraviolet imaging spectrograph at 8 p.m. and 9:20 p.m. PST on Aug. 25, 2008, and 1:02 a.m. PST on Aug. 26 (3 a.m., 4:20 a.m. and 8:02 a.m. UTC on Aug. 26), a period of time spanning five hours and two minutes. The footprint moved according to changes in the position of Enceladus. In the image, the colors represent how bright the extreme ultraviolet emissions are. The lowest emission areas (one to two extreme ultraviolet counts per pixel) are in black/blue. The brightest emission areas (500 to 1,000 extreme ultraviolet counts per pixel) are in yellow/white.
