From Wikipedia - Reading time: 4 min


Salih is a small crater near the sub-Saturnian point of Saturn's moon Enceladus. Salih was first discovered in images taken by the Voyager 2 spacecraft. It is located at 6.5° South Latitude, 0° West Longitude (IAU-defined longitude is 5° West Longitude) and is 4 kilometers across.[1] Available images of this crater have too low resolution to determine anything about the geology of this crater.

Salih is named after the brother of Julnar in the Arabian Nights.
