NASA takes this detergent brand to outer space
Even though NASA s Cassini mission ended around four years ago, data collected by this probe about Saturn and its moons still continue to perplex researchers. And now, a recent study carried out using the data obtained by the Cassini mission has apparently found possible signs of alien life on Saturn s moon Enceladus.
Is methane a sign of alien life?
In a new study published in Nature Astronomy, researchers from the University of Arizona and Paris Science and Letters University revealed that they have detected methane in the plumes of Saturn s icy moon Enceladus. It is still unclear how this methane is produced, but researchers believe that it could be coming out from activity at hydrothermal vents present on Enceladus s interior seafloor.

A new species of tyrannosaur the oldest ever found in Canada has been discovered in Alberta.
Thanatotheristes degrootorum was as long as two cars lined up bumper to bumper and would have towered over an adult human. It stood about 2.4 metres tall at the hips, said Jared Voris, a University of Calgary PhD candidate who led the research identifying it as a new species.

A mystery on Saturn’s moon Rhea may have finally been solved. When NASA’s Cassini spacecraft flew past the planet’s second-largest moon before the end of its mission in 2017, it spotted a mysterious compound. It turns out, that compound may be hydrazine, which is often used in rocket fuel.
As Cassini flew past Saturn’s moons, it examined the sunlight bouncing off their surfaces to determine what they are made of. On Rhea, as well as several of the other moons, something on the surface absorbed a portion of that light in the ultraviolet range of the spectrum.
