Bored with Vermont and Colorado? Enceladus [en-SELL-ah-dus] has snow with grain finer than talcum powder, only a fraction of a millimeter in size, it is perfect for skiing. Because Enceladus reflects almost 100 percent of the sunlight, it is one of the brightest objects in our solar system and, the surface temperature is extremely cold, about -330° F.
Soooo, such a bright spot in our solar system should be easy to find. Space suits won’t remain bulky forever. There are lots of space plane designs in the works, and distances can always be overcome once we get past our cuts-only approach to fiscal prudence. From the looks of the surface you won’t be the first, but you may be the first in your neighborhood to ski Saturn’s moons. Seriously, are you a committed skier or not? — Bob Kalk
