Scientists have discovered that Enceladus’s geysers are so powerful that they can launch ice grains containing amino acids into space, but not so powerful that they’ll destroy the amino acids in the process. This means that future space missions can collect samples of Enceladus’s ocean without having to land on the moon, which is exciting news for astrobiologists who are looking for signs of life in our solar system.
