Back in 2015, it was found out that Saturn’s moon Enceladus is actually an ocean world with a subsurface ocean beneath an ice shell. However, no one could come up with a model that could reconcile the ...

The tough icy shell of Saturn's largest moon Titan is apparently far stronger than previously thought, researchers say. These surprising new findings add to hints Titan possesses an extraordinarily ...

Airplane wings that don't ice up or solar cells that generate electricity even in winter - ice-free surfaces are important for many applications. A team of scientists has now studied an Antarctic ...

An analysis of gravity and topography data from Saturn’s largest moon, Titan, has revealed unexpected features of the moon’s outer ice shell. The best explanation for the findings, the authors said, ...

An ice floe forced oil giant Royal Dutch Shell to call off its preparatory drilling off Alaska just a day after the controversial work started, the company announced Monday. The drifting chunk of ice, ...
