flag A UW researcher finds Enceladus has conditions suitable for life, including water, organics, and energy.

flag A University of Washington researcher analyzing NASA’s Cassini Probe data has found new evidence that Saturn’s moon Enceladus may harbor conditions suitable for life. flag The moon has a subsurface saltwater ocean beneath 19 feet of ice, with jets of water containing organic compounds erupting from fissures in its surface. flag These findings, published October 1 in Nature Astronomy, suggest Enceladus possesses key ingredients for life—liquid water, organic material, and potential energy sources—making it one of the most promising locations in the solar system for future exploration in the search for extraterrestrial life.
