#PPOD: Enceladus in True Color ⚪

Is Enceladus a potential home for life? Scientists are studying this icy moon and its plumes for clues. The discovery of phosphorus, an essential element for life, on Enceladus fuels the exciting possibility of microbial life in its hidden ocean. This small world (505 km in diameter) in the depths of the outer solar system could be one of the first places where we find evidence that life emerged, too.
