Enceladus: Saturn’s Incredible Ocean Moon

I'm not certain, but if the surface is entirely water ice, wouldn't the processes for renewing it by hydrological(movement/change of water) and not geological?

The narrator rambles on and on thus losing my interest in this great video.

Methane could have just been captured from titan, or whatever source titan got its methane

Hi, where is Halleys Comet at right now? Is it making its way back toward us?

Why isnt the Earth named after a god?

It’s disappointing that you don’t mention the valuable contribution William Hershel’s sister Caroline made to the discovery of Uranus, especially since she was featured in the image of William you included in this video.

How is there any water left of any volume if its expelling water into space for billions of years.

In both Europa and Enceladus, we need a way of drilling through deep ice to sample the water (and sending data back). Smart Answers on a postcard to Nasa.

The underside of those ice caps near the vents would be an ideal sample site. Heat, sunlight, fresher water from melted water.

Time that China was ropped into part funding deep solar missions.

If we find life on Europa or Enceladus, itll prove that life must be EVERYWHERE in the universe.

So if we painted the lunar surface silver we would not need night lights...think of the energy savings.

Thanks. How volatile are the gasses of Jupiter? Could a passing meteor that gets drawn in light it up, ala the Sun?

Isn’t life creating methane a natural process or did I miss a huge part of biology class every year?

it's amazing knowing the fact we have 3 moons in our solar system that 100% has water ice

“Complex organic chemicals…”

I like cheese Enceladus😮

V sauce from wish

The real life Kamino.

A few days ago, it was announced that dissolved phosphors have been found in the sub-surface oceans. This was the final ingredient Enceladus needed to be able to theoretically support life! Very exciting times. I expect a new wave will flood this video and cause the algorithm to perpetuate it again as people start to hear the news and become curious about the [fascinating] planetary body.

enceladus mimas and titan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

enceladus mimas and titan and dione!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! im not gonan pronnocune your names or the naems of your palnets orrectly...................

enceladus.

Alright why a billion channels?

I'm always happy when you make "That Planet" jokes on these solar system vids.

Figures someone who doesn't appreciate Pink Floyd also doesnt know how to pronounce "geyser". Lolol

Still think Mars might be even more likely. Why? Well it was much warmer and had all the criteria for life like here on Earth. And here on Earth there are tons of microbes in our soil even kilometers down. Enceladus is still top 2 most likely to host life imo.

only one thing to do. make a space submarine, that can land , melt down through the ice, then dive around and find ansvers. gonna be tricky going back home to earth, maybe leave a return vehicle in orbit with a pickup pod that can taxi down get crew then fly directly back up?

Simon pronouncing geyser as “geezer” gives me life

I have completed the first draft of the pilot episode of Convicts, a sitcom set on Enceladus in 3019. I would be grateful to anyone who has suggestions or is able to fact check my work. I post updates regularly. If your information proves useful, your name may appear in the credits...

Imagine if we lived on a satellite around one of the gas giants?
We'd always have a view of that dead, huge and scary planet from it. Of course we'd be used to it, but it's interesting to imagine it.

Look at this moon covered with Solid ice, then still wondering why on earth, there was proposed theory that Earth 's ocean seawater CAME FROM outer SPACE..just like it's rained down from Milkyway.?? Where such idea came from.. Halley comet?

Believe it or not; Enceladian geological features are named after characters and places in The Tales of the 1001 or Arabian Nights. 🕌

Soon Enceladus is going to start wobbling and tumble over Saturn and falls into a collision trajectory with earth. This collision will take out ALL life in our solar system. This is an alien form of a time bomb.

I love this channel cause its curiousity stream free version and thats awesome for us who cant afford but wanna learn shit

Poor Ensalada

Hell yeah!

<facepalm>
YOU'RE-a-nus
not
you're-A-nus

Holy crap , you can’t get to the topic… moving on.

Can you imagine what sort of creatures could potentially occupy extraterrestrial oceans?

Subcontract the Enceladus project to SpaceEx and Elon Musk. They can get it done in 10 years for half the cost. I might still be alive then, but 2050 is a date too far.

Its Hitler isn't it...

It's kinda like a giant snow ❄️ ball!😂🎉❤

Does this moon spin cause apparently ours doesn't

I can give a rat's ass less about whether there are microbes on another planet.
That's not life it's a waste of life.
All that money that we're dumping into this stupid crap could be put the way better use right here on Earth.

Believe it or not, Enceladian geologic features are named after characters and places in The Tales of 1001 Nights, also known as The Arabian Nights. 🕌

Got Enceladian florescent fish? 🐟🐠
