NASA’s Cassini mission has revealed surprising heat flow at Enceladus’ north pole, showing the moon releases energy from both ...
From Cassini’s awe-inspiring flybys to cutting-edge simulations, scientists are decoding the secrets of Enceladus’s geysers.
The buried ocean on Saturn’s moon Enceladus seems to be stable across extremely long periods of time, making it an even more ...
自 2005 年卡西尼号任务首次发现土卫二南极“虎皮条纹”裂缝喷出巨大的水蒸气羽流以来,这颗星球就被确认为一个活跃的“海洋世界”。其内部海洋之所以能维持液态,主要得益于土星强大引力引发的潮汐加热效应。
在漆黑、高压的深海中,海底火山区域存在独特生态系统——微生物靠氢、甲烷等化学物质存活。NASA 研究发现,这种环境与木星卫星 Europa、土星卫星 Enceladus 的冰层下海洋相似。深海火山如何帮我们找地外生命?
在浩瀚宇宙中,太阳系内的某颗卫星正悄然成为探索地外生命的焦点——土星的第六大卫星土卫二(Enceladus),这颗被厚厚冰壳包裹的星球,正以独特的方式改写着人类对生命存在条件的认知。
The presence of liquid water, heat and the right chemicals on Enceladus, one of Saturn’s moons, means that its sub-surface ...
Enceladus may be leaking heat from both poles—raising hopes that its hidden ocean could stay stable enough to support life.
New findings from NASA’s Cassini mission show that Enceladus, one of Saturn’s moons and a top contender for extra-terrestrial life, is losing heat from both poles – indicating that it has the ...
因表面全覆盖冰而使外观看起来像颗完美雪球的土卫二(Enceladus),不仅南极存在已知热源,一篇新研究首次揭示土卫二北极也存在强烈热流明确证据,这项发现推翻热量流动仅活跃于南极的早期假设,表明土卫二释放热量比预期更多,强化土卫二拥有维持生命所需能量 ...
Excess heat is flowing from the north pole of Enceladus, hinting at a careful energy balance deep that may have kept the subsurface ocean stable over geologically significant timescales, boosting its ...
