Saturn's icy, ocean-bearing moon Enceladus may have tipped over in the distant past, according to recent research from NASA's Cassini mission. Researchers with the mission found evidence that the moon's spin axis--the line through the north and south poles--has reoriented, possibly due to a collision with a smaller body, such as an asteroid.
