This is an amazing discovery for the potential habitability of the moon’s ocean. The Cassini observations have shown that Enceladus has a deep ocean, it has hydrothermal activity, it has chemistry, and now we know there are complex molecules.

Off the coast of Antarctica, the sea ice retreated toward the southernmost continent and, like a bottle cap taken off a soda bottle, that reduced pressure slowed down a process of critical carbon dioxide capture,

Scientists have shown how the freezing of a ‘slushy’ ocean of magma may be responsible for the composition of the Moon’s crust. The scientists, from the University of Cambridge and the Ecole normale supérieure de Lyon, have proposed a new model of ...
