NASA continues to uncover new discoveries wherever it deploys its technology. A few years ago, it discovered that the Cassini ...

A fresh look at data collected by NASA's Cassini probe nearly two decades ago has revealed new, complex organic molecules on Saturn's icy moon Enceladus – pointing to tantalizing chemistry taking ...

New evidence for liquid water, 900,000,000 miles from the sun. July 22, 2009 — -- In 2005, NASA's Cassini probe, orbiting Saturn, made a tantalizing discovery: Enceladus, one of Saturn's moons, ...

The evidence that an ocean-covered moon orbiting around Saturn could support life just got a little stronger. Enceladus, a small moon harboring a vast ocean beneath its icy surface, has long been ...

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 ...

Cassini data show Enceladus ejects ice from its ocean containing intermediates of biologically relevant organics, first found in an ocean beyond Earth. (Nanowerk News) Saturn’s moon Enceladus ...

NASA's Cassini spacecraft zoomed by two Saturn moons this week to take what scientists say are the last close-up views of the geyser-covered Enceladus and cratered Dione for several years. Cassini ...

In 2018, very large organic molecules were discovered in ice particles on Saturn's moon Enceladus. It is still unclear whether they indicate the existence of life or were created in some other way. A ...

Saturn's icy moon Enceladus loses ice mass to space by cryovolcanic geyers, and new TACC supercomputer simulations have improved estimates of ice mass loss. These findings help with understanding and ...

The ocean hidden under the icy shell of Saturn's moon Enceladus harbours complex organic molecules, a study said Wednesday, offering further evidence that the small world could have all the right ...

Cassini image looking across the south pole of Saturn's icy moon Enceladus on 30 November 2010. Jets of water from the moon's underground ocean are visible bursting through cracks in the ice.
