A theory involving a "mushy zone" of ice along the moon’s fissures could explain the enormous plumes erupting from its south ...

但是Salto的最初创造者之一Justin Yim，他现在是伊利诺伊大学的一名教授，发现了一个独特的应用场景，在这个场景中Salto或许能够做到其他机器人无法做到的事情：对从土星卫星土卫二（Enceladus）冰冷表面喷射出的间歇泉中的水进行空中采样。 土卫二（Enceladus ...

How can we explore Saturn's moon, Enceladus, to include its surface and subsurface ocean, with the goal of potentially discovering life as we know it? This is what a recent study presented at the ...

New research suggests Enceladus’ water plumes may originate from a slushy ice layer rather than its underground ocean.

The palm-sized spring-loaded jumping robot has gone from barely being able to chain together a few open-loop jumps to ...

Saturn’s moon Enceladus has giant geysers blasting water into space at supersonic speeds. Does it also harbour life beneath its crust? Originally broadcast on 14 Dec 2016.

Saturn's icy moon Enceladus has long been considered a potential home for life in our solar system. In 2005, NASA's Cassini spacecraft first discovered towering plumes of water vapor erupting from ...

New research suggests Enceladus’ famous geysers may not be shooting straight from its hidden ocean—but from mushy ice pockets instead. Scientists now think Enceladus’ plumes erupt from salty ...

Enceladus's Tiger Stripes consist of four main features officially named Damascus Sulcus, Baghdad Sulcus, Cairo Sulcus, and Alexandria Sulcus, with a smaller feature branching off Alexandria ...

Enceladus has no atmosphere, so flying would have to be powered by a rocket, which will use up fuel, rather than by rotors, like Ingenuity was able to do on Mars.

This is what a recent study published in Communications Earth & Environment hopes to address as a team of researchers from the United Kingdom investigated how life that might exist in the depths of ...
