Jupiter’s Moon Europa Is Bursting With Icy Geysers.
Quote:Two exciting blasts of news have scientific minds swimming—with the possibility of life in Europa's ocean. Today scientists announced evidence pointing to the possibility of ice plumes firing upward at the poles of Europa, potentially connected to the subterranean ocean on this icy moon of Jupiter. This comes soon after recent research found that Europa's ocean may move in Hadley cells, like Earth's does, which transfers heat from the equatorial region to the poles.
