An artist鈥檚 rendition of Saturn鈥檚 moon Enceladus depicts hydrothermal activity on the seafloor and cracks in the moon鈥檚 icy crust that allow material from the watery interior to be ejected into space. Those ejected particles, clues to the subsurface ocean, were analyzed by instruments on board the Cassini space mission. New analysis finds evidence of phosphates, a key building block for life as we know it.
