Saturn's icy moon Enceladus hides a global ocean beneath its frozen surface. From fractures near its south pole, material ...

For years, scientists have debated whether a giant thick ice shelf once covered the entire Arctic Ocean during the coldest ice ages. Now, a new study published in Science Advances challenges this idea ...

An ocean on Pluto long thought to have frozen over could actually just be hidden from view by an insulating cloud of gas, scientists say. The new research suggests there could be more oceans in the ...

The craters on Ceres never made sense. Gravity readings from NASA’s Dawn spacecraft told scientists the dwarf planet’s outer shell was loaded with water ice, yet its surface was pocked with sharp, ...

Astronomers have long been intrigued by the makeup of the asteroid belt's largest body. When it was first spotted in 1801, Ceres appeared dry and rocky, its surface marked by craters and dents. For ...
