'Misty caverns' on Enceladus moon

Nasa's Cassini spacecraft has obtained strong evidence that Saturn's tiny moon Enceladus retains liquid water.


Comments:

From the way it was reported on the news the other day, it appeared there was a split opinion on the matter, with the Europeans claiming they had definitive proof of the salt/water plumes while the American scientists disagreed with that conclusion. <br>The article cited in the link appears to show a consensus among the scientific community in the interpretation of the data. <br>Not sure where the truth or the consensus really is...

As a non-scientist, I'd like to posit that the Midgard Serpent could be sleeping under the ice. Hopefully, NASA scientists will not wake it. <img class='' src='http://new.astromart.com/astromart/javascripts/sceditor/emoticons/grin.png' alt='grin' title='grin'/>
