LUNAR AND PLANETARY SCIENCE CONFERENCEHOUSTON, TEXAS-- Two planetary scientists suggested an explanation for the geophysical oddity of geysering at the south pole of Enceladus at the Lunar and Planetary Science Conference, held here from 13 to 17 March: An imbalance in the saturnian satellite's innards may have rolled it over to bring the geysering ...

Life Detection on Icy Moons Using Flow Cytometry and Intrinsically Fluorescent Biomolecules
AstrobiologyIn a previous experiment, we demonstrated the capability of flow cytometry as a potential life detection technology for icy moons using exogenous fluorescent stains (Wallace et al., 2023).

Astrobiology of Jupiter's icy moons
SPIE Proceedings, 2004Jupiter's Icy Moons, Europa, Ganymede and Callisto, may possess energy sources, biogenic molecules, and oceans below their icy crusts, thus indicating a strong possibility that they were abodes for present or past life. Life in Earth's icy areas lives in a wide variety of habitats associated with the ice, in the water column below the ice, and on the ...

FOR THE FIRST TIME, scientists have directly examined the contents of an icy lunar crater, showing that the surface contains a high percentage of water, much of which is in the form of pure ice crystals, possibly deposited by a comet. The debris kicked up from a lunar crater bombarded by the upper-stage rocket of NASA’s LCROSS spacecraft last year was ...

For Principal Investigator Michele Dougherty of the Magnetometer (MAG) team, the Cassini mission highlight occurred in February 2005. This was when she and her colleagues determined that Saturn’s magnetic field lines were unexpectedly bending as they went by the satellite Enceladus. This was possibly a sign that the tiny moon, even with its low gravity,

Radar for Icy Moon Exploration (RIME)
2019 IEEE 5th International Workshop on Metrology for AeroSpace (MetroAeroSpace), 2019This paper presents the Jupiter Icy Moon Explorer (JUICE) mission focusing on the Radar for Icy Moon Exploration (RIME), which is one of the instruments included in the JUICE payload. RIME is a radar sounder aimed to study the subsurface of Jupiter’s icy moons Ganymede, Europa and Callisto.

RIME: Radar for Icy Moon Exploration
2013 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium - IGARSS, 2013This paper presents the Radar for Icy Moons Exploration (RIME) instrument, which has been selected as payload for the JUpiter Icy moons Explorer (JUICE) mission. JUICE is the first Large-class mission chosen as part of the ESA's Cosmic Vision 2015-2025 programme, and is aimed to study Jupiter and to investigate the potentially habitable zones in the ...
