Deep beneath the Atlantic Ocean, scientists have uncovered a breathtaking undersea world known as the Lost City. This ancient ...

Hidden deep beneath the Atlantic Ocean, a remarkable undersea landscape known as the Lost City Hydrothermal Field could be ...

For many years, scientists at NASA have been investigating the possibility of sending a lander of some type to either Enceladus or Europa—both have icy crusts that cover a liquid-water ocean.

Europa and Enceladus are two ocean moons that scientists have concluded have liquid water oceans underneath their outer icy shells. The Europa Clipper mission should reach Europa around April of 2030.

The icy moons of the Solar System, like Europa around Jupiter and Enceladus around Saturn, are the most likely candidates in the Solar System for life beyond Earth. They have deep oceans, and in ...

“Requirements for Europa and Enceladus flybys, orbiters and landers, including bioburden reduction, shall be applied in order to reduce the probability of inadvertent contamination of Europan or ...

The findings also support the idea that Ceres was once an ocean world, similar to Jupiter's moon Europa or Saturn’s moon Enceladus, but with a dirtier, muddier composition.

Ice moons such as Jupiter’s Europa and Saturn’s Enceladus are currently at the forefront of the search for extraterrestrial life, as it is believed that beneath their thick icy shells there ...
