Red herring. The impact of Saturn's gravity drives this process, as it does on Jupiter's moon Io.
True. The same process is exerted on Earth by the moon. We would be much different without the tidal forces that drive tectonics.
Terrific summary! I was about to post a VERY similar reply, but you beat me to it. lol
Ironically, One Moon has fire, the other has Ice, but both having similar processes with different 'home planets'. All of this is fascinating to me. (don't particularly care for the tone of this article though)
"Tidal heating (also known as tidal working) occurs through the tidal friction processes: orbital and rotational energy are dissipated as heat in the crust of the moons and planets involved. Io, a moon of Jupiter, is the most volcanically active body in the solar system, with no impact craters surviving on its surface. This is because the tidal force of Jupiter deforms Io;[1] the eccentricity of Io's orbit (a consequence of its participation in a Laplace resonance) causes the height of Io's tidal bulge to vary significantly (by up to 100 m) over the course of an orbit; the friction from this tidal flexing then heats up its interior. A similar but weaker process is theorised to have melted the lower layers of the ice surrounding the rocky mantle of Jupiter's next large moon, Europa. Saturn's moon Enceladus is similarly thought to have a liquid water ocean beneath its icy crust. The water vapor geysers which eject material from Enceladus are thought to be powered by friction generated within this moon's shifting ice crust.[2]"
