Recent photographs captured by a spacecraft reveal the stunning phenomenon of ice geysers erupting on Enceladus, one of Saturn’s moons. This discovery not only adds to the intrigue surrounding ...
How much ice is Saturn’s moon, Enceladus, losing to space when it discharges its interior ocean? This is what a recent study published in the Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets hopes to address ...
This image of Enceladus shows half of the moon alight, its surface bright white with deep cracks colored light blue and some pitted areas. A mosaic of Saturn’s moon, Enceladus, captured by Cassini on ...
A source of fascination for scientists are the volcanoes on distant icy moons, such as Jupiter's moon Europa and Saturn's moon Enceladus. These moons have liquid water underground that erupts to the ...
NASA’s Cassini mission has revealed surprising heat flow at Enceladus’ north pole, showing the moon releases energy from both ends. This balance of heat could allow its subsurface ocean to remain ...
Scientists have been able to recreate the extreme conditions found on icy moons in deep space - and revealed the unstable behaviour of water. In the near-zero pressure environment of space, water ...
A small, icy moon of Saturn called Enceladus is one of the prime targets in the search for life elsewhere in the solar system. A new study strengthens the case for Enceladus being a habitable world.
University of Reading provides funding as a member of The Conversation UK. A small, icy moon of Saturn called Enceladus is one of the prime targets in the search for life elsewhere in the solar system ...
