Deep dives

Moon of Saturn has potential for life

Recent data from NASA reveals that one of Saturn's moons, Enceladus, has all the necessary ingredients for life. The subsurface ocean on Enceladus contains phosphorus, a critical building block for DNA crystal. This discovery raises the possibility of finding life forms beyond Earth. The moon's global subsurface ocean, erupting plumes, and cracks in the moon's crust provide opportunities for studying the chemical makeup of the ocean without the need to plunge beneath the ice. While further missions are needed to confirm the existence of life, the findings highlight the potential habitability of Enceladus.
