Excess heat is flowing from the north pole of Enceladus, hinting at a careful energy balance deep that may have kept the ...
From Cassini’s awe-inspiring flybys to cutting-edge simulations, scientists are decoding the secrets of Enceladus’s geysers.
Cassini’s new analysis shows Saturn’s moon Enceladus leaking heat from both poles, not just the south. This balanced heat flow suggests its underground ocean could stay liquid for geological ages, ...
A new study has constrained the Enceladus’ global conductive heat flow by studying its seasonal temperature variations at its ...
A fresh look at data collected by NASA's Cassini probe nearly two decades ago has revealed new, complex organic molecules on Saturn's icy moon Enceladus – pointing to tantalizing chemistry taking ...
Did you know... there is a geyser on one of Saturn’s moons? And not just one, but over 100 huge water-vapor geysers occur at the south pole of Saturn’s moon Enceladus. They are believed to come from ...
The outer solar system is awash with liquid water. A briny ocean is concealed beneath the icy crust of Jupiter’s fourth largest moon, Europa — with more water than all of Earth’s oceans combined. A ...
New findings from NASA’s Cassini mission show that Enceladus, one of Saturn’s moons and a top contender for extra-terrestrial life, is losing heat from both poles – indicating that it has the ...
