Europa’s Hidden Ocean Could Be ‘Fed’ by Sinking Salted Ice; New Study Boosts Hopes for Alien Life
Europa, one of Jupiter’s icy moons, may have a more habitable ocean than once thought. New simulations show that dense, salt-rich ice on the surface can slowly sink through the moon’s thick ice shell and drip into the hidden ocean below. This process would deliver nutrients and oxidants over geological timescales, potentially sustaining conditi...

Scientists Study 100 Possible Alien Signals as Arecibo’s Historic SETI Search Concludes
Scientists are studying 100 possible alien radio signals identified from Arecibo Observatory data, bringing the 21-year SETI@Home project to a close. Supported by millions of volunteers, the effort found no confirmed alien messages but set new sensitivity standards. Researchers say the findings will guide future searches using more powerful radio t...

Icy Moons Might Have Oceans That Briefly Boil, Study Suggests
A new study suggests that icy moons such as Mimas and Enceladus may host boiling subsurface oceans triggered by thinning ice shells and falling pressure. This low-temperature boiling could still support life beneath the surface. The research also explains geological features on larger icy moons and strengthens their potential as sites for finding e...
