Enceladus's Highly Alkaline Subsurface Ocean May Affect Search for Life

Enceladus's highly alkaline subsurface ocean may affect search for life

What can the pH level of the subsurface ocean on Enceladus tell us about finding life there? This is what a recent study accepted to Icarus hopes to address as a team of researchers investigated the potential pH level of Enceladus's subsurface ocean based on current estimates.

The Oceans on Enceladus Are Highly Alkaline

What can the pH level of the subsurface ocean on Enceladus tell us about finding life there? This is what a recent study accepted to Icarus hopes to address as a team of researchers investigated the potential pH level of Enceladus’ subsurface ocean based on current estimates. This study has the potential to help scientists better understand the composition of Enceladus’ subsurface ocean and what this can mean for finding life as we know it.
