Under the ice moon of Saturn, scientists have found an ocean in which life can be Bashny.Net

spacecraft "Cassini" failed to prove the existence beneath the ice of Saturn's moon Enceladus whole ocean of liquid water. Given the size of the satellite, which is only 500 kilometers in diameter, the ocean takes about 30-40 kilometers, can be considered huge.

According to scientists, in this ocean of life can exist, especially given the composition of the satellite, which has a silicate core of phosphorus and sulfur compounds. In combination with water and tectonic activity can form simple life forms. The proof of this theory is the analysis of the composition of the emitted companion geyser emissions, which scientists found organic molecules and salts.
