Saturn’s ice moon Enceladus is being slowly devoured by the gas giant’s rings, according to a series of new NASA images that show ghostly tendrils escaping the moon’s cryo-volcanoes and ...

Scientists from the Max Planck Institute for Nuclear Physics and the University of Potsdam have found ice volcanoes - or what could be called "ice geysers" - on the surface of Saturn's moon Enceladus.

This image from the Cassini probe shows an ice volcano erupting on the surface of Saturn’s moon Enceladus. Scientists have suggested that these volcanoes might come from water beneath the moon ...

Ice volcanoes – or cryovolcanoes – are in the news again. Recently, a mysterious pyramid on the dwarf planet Ceres was found to actually be one of these chilly, violent peaks. What really ...

Pluto, Enceladus, and Earth, of course, aren't the only bodies in the solar system with volcanoes. Titan, one of Saturn's moons, has possible cryovolcanoes that are shaped much like those on Earth.

There is another, colder type of volcano that shoots out liquids and ices made of water, methane, ammonia and chlorine instead of lava. Called cryovolcanoes, these eruptions form mountains of ice.

What can the pH level of the subsurface ocean on Enceladus tell us about finding life there? This is what a recent study ...

A new study shows that dozens of ice volcanoes used to litter the surface of the dwarf planet, Ceres, billions of years ago. Unlike volcanoes on Earth, ice volcanoes (also known as cryovolcanoes ...

But whether these ice volcanoes were genuinely what they looked like, ... Europa, a moon of Jupiter, and Enceladus, which orbits Saturn, both have incontrovertible internal oceans.

Five worlds in the solar system have active volcanoes (those that are currently erupting or have erupted in human history): Earth, Jupiter’s moons Io and Europa, Neptune’s moon Triton, and ...
