A small icy moon orbiting Saturn is a likely candidate to host outer space life, as a major space organisation is targeting ...

The faraway moon has 'a slushy high-pressure ice layer' similar to the melting Arctic that could hide extraterrestrial life.

These findings come from data collected by NASA’s Cassini spacecraft, which orbited Saturn from 2004 to 2017. The spacecraft ...

The European Space Agency (ESA) is planning a mission to hunt for alien life on the surface of one of Saturn’s moons. Scientists want to send a probe to the icy world of Enceladus, which contains a ...

Saturn's moon, Enceladus, could harbour alien life deep within its underground oceans of water, according to the European Space Agency (ESA). Although the moon may appear barren, near the South Pole, ...

Decades ago, a spacecraft suggested Saturn's largest moon, Titan, had an ocean. New observations suggest that the liquid may look more like slush.

This study marks the first detailed chemical analysis of freshly ejected plume grains. Scientists have found new evidence suggesting Saturn's icy moon Enceladus may harbour conditions suitable for ...

The European Space Agency is planning an ambitious mission to Saturn's moon Enceladus, launching in the 2040s. Utilizing an orbiter and lander, the mi ...

Because Titan is tidally locked, the same side of the moon faces Saturn all the time, just like our own moon and Earth.

Enceladus has a surface temperature of below - 200 degrees but is thought of having a large hot sub-surface ocean that shoots up plumes of material hundreds of miles up This three-image mosaic handout ...

A moon around Saturn could be even more hospitable to alien life than we thought, scientists have said. Heat is coming out of the top of the icy world, researchers have found in a major new study.

From mudstones on Mars to strange gases in exoplanet atmospheres, tentative evidence for extraterrestrial life is starting to ...
