1. Antarctic Subglacial Lakes as Environmental Analogues for Possible Hidden Biospheres on the Moons Europa and Enceladus
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperAbstract : The evolving science of astrobiology for the search for life beyond Earth has put focus on the possibility of subsurface bodies of liquid water beneath the surface of icy moons within our Solar System. Specifically, the Jovian moon of Europa and the Saturnian moon of Enceladus show telling characteristics of endogenous heating through their complex tidal resonances with their parent planets – suggesting the presence of oceans of liquid water and therefore a potential for astrobiology.

2. A quantitative analysis of plume gas distributions from different detection studies on Europa
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : The search for water has been vital in our solar system as water indicates a potential for life. The search has been extended to satellites orbiting the outer planets. It has already been proven that water exists on Saturn’s moon, Enceladus, where the spacecraft Cassini did a flyby through a water plume. READ MORE

3. James Webb Space Telescope Observations of Jupiter’s Moon Europa
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : The creation of life has puzzled humanity since the dawn of time. With the launch of thecutting-edge James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) at last year's closing, the next step in humanity'ssearch for life has been taken. READ MORE

4. Probing for plumes in observations of Europa in transit over Jupiter : A data analysis using Hubble Space Telescope images
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : In 2016 Sparks et al. [14] reported evidence of water plumes above the Galilean moon Europa. Their method consisted of creating a model image of Europa transiting Jupiter and analytically comparing it with an actual far-ultraviolet observation from the Hubble Space Telescope. In 2020 Giono et al. READ MORE

5. Search for Water Plumes on Jupiter’s Moon Europa
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : Several studies have been conducted with the aimof finding water plumes at Jupiter’s moon Europa. The possibleevidence of plumes is important for two future space missions,the JUpiter ICy moons Explorer (JUICE) and the Europa clippermission. READ MORE
