Saturn's moon Enceladus may ease the search for alien life
Original: Saturn’s icy moon Enceladus may make alien life easier to find than scientists thought
A new report suggests Enceladus, Saturn's icy moon, may make it easier than previously believed for scientists to detect signs of alien life. The moon is known for the plumes of water vapour erupting from its subsurface ocean, which space probes have already sampled. The claim is that biosignatures could be found more readily in that material than researchers assumed.
Why now: Enceladus is a leading candidate in the search for extraterrestrial life, so any claim it could be easier to study draws wide interest
