An analysis of cryovolcano plumes on Enceladus by light scattering and polarimetry
… Cassini spacecraft show that Enceladus has cryovolcanoes on its south pole as well as a global subsurface ocean hidden beneath its frozen crust. Photographs from Cassini during flybys of Enceladus document Enceladus’s surface and the cryovolcano plumes. It is known that larger particles …

Establishing A Crewed Presence On Titan
… terrain, subsurface oceans, and possible cryovolcanoes. Having a station orbiting Titan holds many benefits, the outer solar system could be reached without relying on once-in-a-lifetime alignments, methane from the atmosphere could be easily stored for propellant, and emergency logistics …

Thermal Drilling and Anchoring on Icy Planetary Bodies
… have subsurface liquid oceans, and has active cryovolcanoes. Despite the cryogenic surface temperatures, ambient vacuum pressure, and high levels of radiation, potential missions to its surface or its subsurface oceans are topics of current research. Exploring Europa’s surface poses an …
