ENCELADE is a natural satellite of Saturn, discovered in 1789. Another bluish planet covered in snow, fresh water and probably seismically active. Besides the dreamlike thought that Enceladus might one day be covered by a green jungle, the mythological figure embodies power, rebellion and character. The satellite represents freshness, softness and purity. In mythology, Enceladus, son of Gaia (Earth) and Uranus (Heaven), was defeated by Athena after the Giants attempted to climb Mount Olympus to join the gods. Legend has it that he was buried under Sicily and still breathes through the smoke and eruptions of the volcano Etna.
