Saturn's moon Enceladus: interior could be more complex than initially thought
Saturn's icy moon is one of the most promising places in the Solar System to search for conditions that could potentially support life. A new study suggests its subsurface ocean could be driving more complex processes than thought.
Organic compounds found in plumes ejected by Saturn's moon Enceladus
Data from the Cassini mission has revealed organic compounds in plumes ejected from Enceladus similar to those involved in the development of life on Earth.
Complex molecules found on Enceladus
The discovery of complex organic molecules on Enceladus makes Saturn's moon the only known body apart from Earth to satisfy the requirements for life as we know it.
Is friction heating Saturn's icy moon?
The Cassini mission revealed Saturn's moon Enceladus to be a hive of hydrothermal activity, but what is generating the activity? The answer may be found deep in the moon's core.
Surprise methanol found around Enceladus
Methanol has been detected in the plumes of Saturn’s moon Encleadus from the ground for the first time.
Enceladus may have been tipped over
Saturn's icy moon may have been knocked on its side by a collision with a smaller body in its past.
Cassini prepares for Enceladus ‘plume dive’
Cassini's next mission manoeuvre aims to find out more about the geological activity occurring on Saturn's icy moon Enceladus, revealing new data that will help determine the prospects for supporting life in its global ocean.
