Saturn's surprise: NASA discovered an energy source and a basic molecule for life on Enceladus

  • 20 תגובות
In the new study, evidence for additional sources of chemical energy, much stronger and more diverse than methane production, was discovered: a group of organic compounds was found that were oxidized, and this points to many chemical pathways for the existence of potential life in the subsurface ocean of Enceladus, because oxidation helps to release chemical energy.

What will happen to all our stuff? What will happen to our homes, our schools, our neighborhoods, our cities? Who will feed the dog? Who will cut the grass? Although it's a common theme in movies, TV shows, and books, the end of humanity is still a strange thing to think about

In the picture: an illustration of the arrangement of water molecules at temperatures around the freezing point, arranged around a single reference molecule. The white area shows the orderly and directional organization of the water density in the form of an "oyster", which results from the properties of the bonds between the hydrogen molecules. The orange color shows a "volume increase area", which a water molecule cannot penetrate, due to its structural characteristics. Source: IBM.

The system was designed according to the biomimicry methodology. In fact every functional aspect of the system was designed inspired by another organism. For example, the water storage component of the system was developed inspired by plants living in dry habitats, such as drought-resistant succulents, such as the crystalline ice plant seen in the photo.
