The buried ocean on Saturn’s moon Enceladus seems to be stable across extremely long periods of time, making it an even more ...

Excess heat is flowing from the north pole of Enceladus, hinting at a careful energy balance deep that may have kept the ...

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

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 recent study reveals significant heat flow at Enceladus's north pole, suggesting the possibility of a stable ocean that ...

Saturn's Enceladus moon might be capable of supporting life, according to data collected by NASA's Cassini mission and ...

As missions prepare to visit ocean worlds like Enceladus and Europa, new findings show scientists must first learn to ...

Researchers have long suggested that Enceladus may be the most likely place to find alien life within our own solar system. Underneath its icy crust is believed to be a vast, salty ocean – and the ...

For nearly two decades Enceladus, a 500-kilometer-wide moon of Saturn, has been a top target in the hunt for extraterrestrial life. In 2005, shortly after arriving in orbit around the ringed planet, ...

A new study has constrained the Enceladus’ global conductive heat flow by studying its seasonal temperature variations at its ...

Organic molecules in Enceladus's plumes may form from surface radiation, not its ocean, reshaping how scientists assess the moon's habitability. (Nanowerk News) Organic molecules detected in the ...

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 ...
