Spherical bodies stay spherical. Other capacities use equal-volume cubes. Linear dimensions grow with the cube root of volume.
A little perspective
The spherical volume of Enceladus is about 67.1 times the volume of 1,000,000 cubic kilometres.

Enceladus
Rounded mean-radius model of Enceladus. The derived area and volume describe a sphere; surface terrain and flattening are omitted.
NASA JPL — Planetary satellite physical parameters
The marked spherical volume is calibrated. Unmeasured illustration details are representative.

Why these numbers?
The visual compares volume with spherical volume. The records below preserve each value’s basis and caveats.

- Comparing
- Volume ↔ Spherical volume
- Relative size
- Enceladus is larger on this measurement by a factor of about 67.1.
How to read the visual
The labelled spans and stored measurements determine the scale; unmeasured illustration details do not.
- Enceladus is labelled derived; treat the displayed value as a comparison anchor rather than false precision.
