A recent study of Enceladus, one of Saturn’s moons, has detected several organic compounds that had never been recorded there before. For Enceladus, Cassini gathered data from ice fragments forcefully ejected from the moon’s subsurface ocean up into space. The outermost of Saturn’s main rings—its E ring—is primarily made up of ice ejected into space by Enceladus. Until now, most chemical analyses of ice from Enceladus were of particles deposited in Saturn’s E ring. The discovery significantly expands the range of confirmed organic molecules on Enceladus.
