Saturn's moon Enceladus is known for spewing jets of water-ice into space, with new research revealing a potential mechanism ...

The study's author explains how understanding Enceladus' expulsions is instrumental to understanding the potential ...

Over the course of its elliptical orbit, the moon Enceladus is squeezed unevenly by Saturn's gravitational pull and deforms ...

"We aim to continue to investigate ways we can use geophysical measurements to better understand the conditions which may ...

Huge "tiger stripe" fault lines seen on Saturn's moon Enceladus raise hopes that a "long-lived" ocean containing potential ...

Scientists could one day find traces of life on Enceladus, an ocean-covered moon orbiting Saturn.

As a planetary scientist and astrobiologist who studies ice grains from Enceladus, I'm interested in whether there is life on ...

Over the course of its elliptical orbit, the moon Enceladus is squeezed unevenly by Saturn's gravitational pull and deforms from a spherical shape into a football shape and back again. This cyclic str ...

At Enceladus's south pole, a large number of jets spray icy particles out from a set of jagged, 150-kilometer-long faults—known as the tiger-stripe faults—and this ejected material coalesces ...

Jets along Enceladus’s famous tiger stripes may be punching through the moon’s icy shell because strike-slip motion periodically tears the features. New research explains how tides between the moon ...
