SCIENTISTS have uncovered a vast ocean beneath the icy surface of Saturns little moon Enceladus.
Italian and American researchers made the discovery using Cassini, a NASA-European spacecraft still exploring Saturn and its rings 17 years after its launch from Cape Canaveral.
This new ocean of liquid water as big as or even bigger than North America’s Lake Superior is centred at the south pole of Enceladus and could encompass much if not most of the moon. Enceladus is about 499 kilometres in diameter.
