How can we explore Saturn's moon, Enceladus, to include its surface and subsurface ocean, with the goal of potentially discovering life as we know it? This is what a recent study presented at the ...

The study's author explains how understanding Enceladus' expulsions is instrumental to understanding the potential habitability of the moon.

Saturn's moon Enceladus is known for spewing jets of water-ice into space, with new research revealing a potential mechanism behind this phenomenon.

Saturn has 146 confirmed moons– more than any other planet in the solar system – but one called Enceladus stands out. It appears to have the ingredients for life. From 2004 to 2017, Cassini– a joint ...

Saturn’s moon Enceladus has geysers shooting tiny grains of ice into space. These grains could hold traces of life − but researchers need the right tools to tell.

NASA scientists found more compelling evidence that Saturn's moon Enceladus may be a habitable world. They concluded the ocean moon harbors hydrogen cyanide, a critical molecule for life.

Enceladus has a variety of important organic compounds that hint it may harbor an environment conducive to life deep within its oceans.

Saturn's icy moon Enceladus harbours essential elements for life Enceladus' ice grains contain a rich assortment of minerals and complex organic compounds, including the ingredients for amino ...

The Cassini spacecraft detected phosphorus—a building block of life—in the subsurface oceans of the icy moon Enceladus.

High concentrations of phosphorus, an essential element for all biological processes on Earth, have been detected in ice crystals spewed from the interior ocean of Saturn's moon Enceladus, adding ...

Phosphorus, an essential ingredient for life, has been detected in water samples that can be traced back to Enceladus, a moon of Saturn.
