Researchers using NASA's James Webb Space Telescope have mapped a massive plume of water vapor arising from Saturn's moon Enceladus. This stream, jetting out from the south pole, was found to be more than 20 times the size of the moon, spanning over 9,656km. This latest Webb finding once again sparks conversation about the possibility of life beyond Earth.
