Enceladus has water, but we have the tea 🪐⁣ ⁣ A study using data from our NASASolarSystem Cassini indicates there may be much more chemical energy inside Saturn’s tiny moon than previously thought – along with evidence of a key ingredient for life.⁣ ⁣ We’ve known Enceladus is spewing ice grains and water rich with organic compounds from a giant plume – some of which are important to life. New analysis has found a strong confirmation of hydrogen cyanide, a molecule key to the origin of life. ⁣ ⁣ That’s not all – researchers have found evidence of an ocean hiding below the moon’s icy outer shell, this also supports the giant plume with a supercharged source of energy. Unidentified in this study, the source is in the form of several organic compounds, some of which on Earth serve as fuel for organisms. ⁣ ⁣ More chemical energy is brewing inside Saturn’s tiny moon than previously thought. The more energy available, the more likely that life might proliferate and be sustained. ⁣ ⁣ Image d...
