Oceans on Saturn's Moon Enceladus!

Enceladus, Saturn's sixth-largest moon, has captured the interest of scientists due to its subsurface ocean, making it a strong candidate for extraterrestrial life. Recent studies confirm the presence of a vast ocean beneath its icy crust, supported by gravitational anomalies detected by NASA's Cassini spacecraft. This ocean, similar in volume to Lake Superior, lies beneath a thick ice shell. The interaction between liquid water and the rocky core could foster chemical reactions necessary for life. Enceladus' potential for habitability is compared to Jupiter's moon Europa, which also has a subsurface ocean. NASA is considering future missions to explore these moons further.
