Scientists have just uncovered new evidence that Saturn’s moon Enceladus might be hiding alien life beneath its frozen surface. Thanks to data from NASA’s Cassini mission, researchers detected heat escaping from the moon’s North Pole — a sign that its underground ocean could be stable enough to support life. With a perfectly balanced energy system and ingredients like water, heat, and organic compounds, Enceladus is now one of the most promising places in our solar system to search for extraterrestrial life. Could something be swimming in that hidden ocean?

00:00What if alien life is hiding under the ice, on a moon of Saturn?
00:04Scientists may have just found the perfect place.
00:07NASA's Cassini mission has made a game-changing discovery on Enceladus,
00:11one of Saturn's icy moons.
00:13Heat is leaking from its north pole, and that's a big deal.
00:16It means the massive underground ocean might be far more stable than we thought.
00:21And where there's stable water, there might be life.
00:24Enceladus looks frozen and lifeless on the outside.
00:27But beneath its 201 degrees C crust lies a deep ocean.
00:31Heated by Saturn's gravity, the moon is stretching and squeezing constantly.
00:35This keeps the water from freezing and creates the perfect conditions for life to possibly evolve.
00:40Cassini's data shows that the heat energy going in matches what's coming out.
00:45That means the ocean isn't freezing or overheating. It's just right.
00:49The moon is also spewing water and organic materials from deep inside,
00:53the kind of stuff microbes love to use on Earth.
00:56So could alien life be swimming under the ice of Enceladus?
01:00We don't know yet, but the signs are more promising than ever.
01:03The next step? Maybe a mission to dive into that alien ocean.
01:07Conc Unexist headache.
01:08Or no, they won't be swimming under the ice of Enceladus,
01:09A scav overload.
