ANN ARBOR, Mich.— NASA’s Cassini spacecraft is scheduled to fly within 16 miles of Saturn’s moon Enceladus on Oct. 9 and measure molecules in its space environment that could give insight into the ...

WASHINGTON (Reuters) -A fresh look at data collected by NASA's Cassini spacecraft has uncovered more evidence that Saturn's moon Enceladus may be able to support life, with additional complex organic ...

Saturn's moon Enceladus is a frozen world, but it isn't frozen solid. Colossal cryovolcanoes near the ice-locked moon's south pole send plumes from its briny global ocean so far into space that they ...

In 2004, NASA scientists proposed that Enceladus, a small frozen moon orbiting Saturn, could hide a global ocean under its ...

NASA's workhorse Saturn orbiter Cassini has just beamed back stunning new views of the ringed planet's dazzling moons, including the probe's closest-ever pass over the ice geysers of Enceladus. The ...

NASA’s Cassini spacecraft is headed toward its Sept. 15 plunge into Saturn, following a final, distant flyby of the planet’s giant moon Titan. The spacecraft made its closest approach to Titan today ...

A major study by an international team of researchers using data from the NASA/ESA/ASI Cassini spacecraft has revealed a ...

Enceladus’s geysers power vast electromagnetic wave systems that redistribute energy throughout Saturn’s magnetosphere.

Scientists have been speculating about what we would find in the space between Saturn and its innermost rings, and the Cassini probe is finally putting those hypotheses to the test. A recent course ...
