Massive Plume of Water Vapor Spewing from Enceladus Detected by Webb Space Telescope

The Webb Space Telescope found a plume of water vapor erupting from Saturn's moon Enceladus that is 6,000 miles long.
The plume emerges from Enceladus at a rate of 79 gallons per second, indicating the presence of liquid water oceans beneath the moon's icy surface.
Enceladus is a prime candidate for detecting potential extraterrestrial life due to its subsurface oceans.
The discovery provides more insight into the potential habitability of ocean worlds in the solar system.
Further study of Enceladus and its plumes could yield evidence of life on other worlds.
