bandit4910 Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Well new research has confirmed it.Do you expect a probe to be on the moon?I just googled the moon for a report then that showed up.I don\'t expect intelligent lifeforms, though.I do expect microscopic life.

bandit4910 Posted April 9, 2012 Author Share Posted April 9, 2012 I almost expect maroonec kerbals.That moon has barely any sunlight, it has weak gravity.I\'m surprised theres water on there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt'n Skunky Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 That moon has barely any sunlight, it has weak gravity.I\'m surprised theres water on there.How would the amount of sunlight and strength of gravity have anything to do with water being present?Arrr!Capt\'n Skunky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bandit4910 Posted April 9, 2012 Author Share Posted April 9, 2012 How would the amount of sunlight and strength of gravity have anything to do with water being present?Arrr!Capt\'n SkunkySunlight would be warmth...Gravity to keep the water on the moon.Of course it spews out in particles and stuff.

iamwearingpants Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 When you\'re talking \'bout water underneath the surface, then geothermal stuff matters. Also, the tides of the planet can stretch the entire moon, causing friction and thus heat (which is the reason for Io\'s vulcanism)So, if Enceladus has sufficient geothermal activity, then liquid water is possible below the surface, no matter how much sunlight it receives.

bandit4910 Posted April 10, 2012 Author Share Posted April 10, 2012 They have been known this since 2005 when they got a picture of it. Not exactly they were particles of water...That could of been sign of past water...(Like Mars may have if we ever get a person up there with our budget for space travel now.)We found the water getting squeezed out is actual proof..So maybe Europa has water...Of course that is a maybe, that place looks to be a frozen waste land.
