Map Reveals 101 Geysers on Saturnian Moon Enceladus

Saturn's moon Enceladus has captivated scientists with its potential to host life beneath its icy shell. Recent discoveries from NASA's Cassini spacecraft have revealed that the geysers erupting from Enceladus' surface contain complex organic molecules—some over 200 times the mass of methane. These molecules likely form in the hydrothermal vents on the ocean floor, similar to those on Earth that support vibrant ecosystems. This makes Enceladus one of the most promising places in our solar system
