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 ...

Saturn's Enceladus moon is one of the most promising for supporting life outside of Earth but within the solar system, the authors of a newly published story announced Thursday. File Photo by NASA Nov ...

Through new experiments, researchers in Japan and Germany have recreated the chemical conditions found in the subsurface ...

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.

In this image provided by NASA, NASA’s Cassini spacecraft captured this image of Enceladus on Nov. 30, 2010, with the shadow of the body of Enceladus on the lower portions of the jets is clearly ...

Excess heat is flowing from the north pole of Enceladus, hinting at a careful energy balance deep that may have kept the subsurface ocean stable over geologically significant timescales, boosting its ...

Astronomers have found that Saturn’s moon, Enceladus, is spewing out copious amounts of complex organic molecules, suggesting it’s an even more promising place to look for extraterrestrial life than ...

At the time of writing, the number of known moons in the solar system reached over 950. Most of them are so savage that there is little chance life as we know it could ever take hold. But there is at ...
