NASA's Juno spacecraft detected organic compounds and mineral salts on the surface of Jupiter's largest moon, Ganymede, hinting at a salty subsurface ocean.

Europa is one of the objects in our solar system that's under observation for potentially having the conditions to support life.

Data from NASA's James Webb Space Telescope shows carbon dioxide on a region of Jupiter's moon Europa, suggesting it potentially could harbor conditions suitable for life.

The James Webb Space Telescope has observed a source of carbon, a vital ingredient for life, on Jupiter's icy moon Europa.

Scientists have found traces of phosphorus, a fundamental ingredient for life, in ice grains spewed into space by Enceladus, one of Saturn’s moons.

Saturn’s moon Enceladus has phosphorous. The finding came from recently analyzed icy particles emitted from the natural satellite’s ocean plumes, detected by NASA’s Cassini spacecraft. The discovery means Enceladus has all the chemical building blocks for life as we know it on Earth. “This is the final one saying, ‘Yes, Enceladus does have all of the ingredients that typical Earth life would need to live and that the ocean there is habitable for life as we know...

The finding was based on a review of data collected by NASA's Cassini probe, and was published Wednesday in the prestigious journal Nature

The EELS "robot snake" is designed to autonomously explore otherwise inaccessible locations on Earth, Mars and beyond.

Four of the largest Uranian Moons—Titania, Oberon, Umbriel and Ariel—have subsurface oceans, according to a new study.
