These findings come from data collected by NASA’s Cassini spacecraft, which orbited Saturn from 2004 to 2017. The spacecraft ...
The faraway moon has 'a slushy high-pressure ice layer' similar to the melting Arctic that could hide extraterrestrial life.
A small icy moon orbiting Saturn is a likely candidate to host outer space life, as a major space organisation is targeting ...
Because Titan is tidally locked, the same side of the moon faces Saturn all the time, just like our own moon and Earth.
Enceladus has a surface temperature of below - 200 degrees but is thought of having a large hot sub-surface ocean that shoots up plumes of material hundreds of miles up This three-image mosaic handout ...
With the recent discovery of traces of what may or may not be or have been life on Mars, eyes are turning to another world in the solar system which might harbor extraterrestrial life. Old data from ...
Phosphates have been found on Saturn’s moon Enceladus, in a new breakthrough discovery that boosts hopes for finding alien life in our solar system. It is the first time phosphorus has been found in ...
This study marks the first detailed chemical analysis of freshly ejected plume grains. Scientists have found new evidence suggesting Saturn's icy moon Enceladus may harbour conditions suitable for ...
Decades ago, a spacecraft suggested Saturn's largest moon, Titan, had an ocean. New observations suggest that the liquid may look more like slush.
A moon around Saturn could be even more hospitable to alien life than we thought, scientists have said. Heat is coming out of the top of the icy world, researchers have found in a major new study.
The end is nigh for Cassini, a spacecraft that launched in 1997 and has explored Saturn and its moons for 13 years. However, scientists will squeeze every last discovery they can from the probe during ...
