Abstract
On Enceladus, only mid and high latitude plains have remnants of old terrains; the other regions could be young. In particular, the regions near the South Polar Terrain could be as young as 50Â Myr old. On the contrary for Iapetus, all the surface is old and it notably registers a primordial source of craters. As the crater size is decreased, it would be perceived to approach saturation until Dâ²2Â km-craters, where saturation is complete.
