What can the pH level of the subsurface ocean on Enceladus tell us about finding life there? This is what a recent study ...

NASA just made a discovery that could change everything: an underground ocean on Saturn’s moon Enceladus. With the potential ...

From space, Saturn’s moon Enceladus might not seem like a hospitable place for life. Its cold surface is caked thick with fresh ice, marked by craters and active cryovolcanoes that spew ice ...

Scientists have long viewed Saturn’s moon Enceladus, which harbors an ocean beneath its thick, icy shell, as one of the best places to search for life beyond Earth.. Now, a new analysis of data ...

While determining if life could originate on Enceladus is still a long way off, this new research shows the chemical pathways for life on this Saturnian moon can be tested in the lab on Earth.

Detecting life on the icy Saturn moon of Enceladus could be achieved without even landing, but it wouldn't be easy, scientists say.

Many researchers consider Enceladus to be among the most likely places to house extraterrestrial life. It’s a world encased in ice, with an ocean of salty water hidden beneath ( SN: 11/6/17 ).

Enceladus has a variety of important organic compounds that hint it may harbor an environment conducive to life deep within its oceans. Skip to content Introducing the all-new Astronomy.com Forum!

Enceladus is one of the best candidates for extraterrestrial life in our solar system. Three of Saturn's moons, Tethys, Enceladus and Mimas, are captured in this photo from NASA's Cassini spacecraft.

In the search for life beyond Earth, one of the most exciting potential locations to explore is Saturn's icy moon Enceladus. With its thick icy crust covering a liquid water ocean, the moon is ...
