Scientists believe there may be life on Jupiter's moon Europa and now Saturn's moon Enceladus is also looked upon as a possible hot spot for life. Enceladus has a diameter of only 500km but features a giant geyser that spews ice and other particles out into space to distances of 1,500km. Similar to Europa, scientists believe Enceladus may contain liquid water or...
