The sixth largest of Saturn's moons, Enceladus has become one of the leading contenders in the search for bodies that could harbour extraterrestrial life, with the Cassini mission — which ended in 2017 — revealing the moon has a plume of water ice grains and vapours erupting from beneath the surface at its south pole. The phenomenon has since been captured by James Webb telescope, with the plume reaching nearly 6,000 miles into space. The source of this material is thought to be a saltwater ocean that lies beneath the moon's icy crust. Now researchers studying data fro
