Saturn’s moon Enceladus and many other ice-covered moons orbiting the outer planets are believed to conceal vast subsurface oceans beneath their frozen shells. These hidden seas, trapped between layers of ice and rocky cores, make such moons some of the most promising locations in our solar system to search for extraterrestrial life. A new study published on November 24 in Nature Astronomy offers fresh insights into the internal dynamics of these worlds, helping scientists better understand the processes unfolding beneath their surfaces. The findings also shed light on how the moons’ striking and varied geological features may have formed over time. Official Site
