Ophiolite Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 For those who get frustrated by links that are unaccompanied by comment on executive summary, here is this: The article discusses the geysers spouting water into space from Enceladus, the moon of Saturn. It notes that the presence of liquid ocean beneath the frozen surface of the moon, coupled with its enriched mineral content, make it a suitable place for microbial life. The article goes on to discuss missions that might investigate the plumes with more sophisticated instrumentation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
