Map of the Universe from Johns Hopkins University and others.....

Johns Hopkins University (JHU) continues to pad its space community résumé with their interactive map, “The map of the observable Universe”, that takes viewers on a 13.7-billion-year-old tour of the cosmos from the present to the moments after the Big Bang. While JHU is responsible for creating the site, additional contributions were made by NASA, the European Space Agency, the National Science Foundation, and the Sloan Foundation.

Exploring The Galilean Moons: Io, Europa, Ganymede, Callisto

This video is a captivating journey through the Galilean moons of Jupiter – Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto. We explore the science, history, and intrigue surrounding these celestial bodies discovered by Galileo Galilei himself. Learn about the unique features of each moon, from the fiery volcanoes of Io to the subsurface oceans of Europa. Delve into the latest research and discoveries made by spacecraft missions like the Galileo and Juno probes. Join us as we unravel the mysteries of these diverse and fascinating worlds, shedding light on their role in our understanding of the solar system. Learn More About The Galilean Moons:

Deep Dive into Enceladus Plume

On Oct. 28, 2015, NASA's Cassini spacecraft will take the deepest dive ever through the plume of Saturn's moon Enceladus. Scientists hope this close flyby will shed light on what's happening beneath the moon's icy surface. With a global ocean and likely hydrothermal activity, could Enceladus have the ingredients needed to support simple forms of life?


Hydrothermal vents in the oceans of icy moons (3. Enceladus)

In this video, we will show a visual representation of so-called ‘black smoker’ hydrothermal vent. In nature, these vents produce plumes of hydrogen sulfide gas through the water that can be used as a source of energy by microfauna. The black colour comes from iron sulfide within the mixture. In this video (demonstration), this is being represented by manganese dioxide, acting as a catalyst for the decomposition of a 12% hydrogen peroxide solution. This has been used as an analogue in the lab, as hydrogen sulfide is toxic to animals, including humans. On Jupiter’s moon Enceladus, hot water from hydrothermal vents can travel all the way from the seafloor to Enceladus’ surface and be ejected by the plumes thousands of kilometres into space. 3. Enceladus. The video supports the Europlanet Icy Moons Collection of Educational Resources - Europlanet 2024 RI has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 871149.

New Evidence For Possible Life In Enceladus' Ocean

Saturn's icy moon Enceladus is one of the most interesting candidates in the search for life in the solar system. Recently, a team of scientists, including Dr. Christopher Glein from the Southwest Research Institute, has discovered new evidence for a key building block for life in the Enceladus' underground ocean. Sources: Abundant phosphorus expected for possible life in Enceladus’s ocean Phosphorus Fact Sheet for Health Professionals How does salinity shape ocean circulation and ice geometry on Enceladus and other icy satellites?
