Cassini data reveal how Saturn’s moon Enceladus leaks enough heat to keep its buried ocean warm and potentially habitable ...

Researchers have found Saturn’s moon Enceladus has heat circulating beneath its icy crust, meaning the chemistry of biology ...

Heat is escaping from Saturn’s moon Enceladus at its north pole, as well as the south, a reanalysis of data from the Cassini ...

W hen we imagine alien life in books or on TV, we often think of planets like ours inhabited by extraterrestrial people. The ...

From Cassini’s awe-inspiring flybys to cutting-edge simulations, scientists are decoding the secrets of Enceladus’s geysers.

NASA’s Cassini mission has revealed surprising heat flow at Enceladus’ north pole, showing the moon releases energy from both ...

Enceladus may be leaking heat from both poles—raising hopes that its hidden ocean could stay stable enough to support life.

Scientists could one day find traces of life on Enceladus, an ocean-covered moon orbiting Saturn. NASA/JPL-Caltech, CC BY-SA Saturn has 146 confirmed moons – more than any other planet in the solar ...

The moon, pulled like taffy by the complicated gravitational tug of war inside the Saturnian system, heats up and forms an ocean beneath the ice. Every so often, the ice cracks and the moon belches ...

Enceladus' four tiger stripes may have formed during a period of coolness, when the moon's inner sea froze, swelled, and cracked the surface at the south pole. NASA, ESA, JPL, SSI, Cassini Imaging ...

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 ...

A new study led by researchers from Oxford University, Southwest Research Institute and the Planetary Science Institute in ...
