There May be Extraterrestrial Life in Our Solar System [Science Video]

Are we alone? Could it be possible that another planet or moon in our solar system could host extraterrestrial life? Take a journey along with Augusto Carballido exploring some of the ocean worlds on Jupiter and Saturn to investigate this possibility!

Deep in our solar system, a new era of exploration is unfolding. Beneath the thick ice of Europa; in the vapor plumes on Enceladus; and within the methane lakes of Titan, scientists are hunting for extraterrestrial life. These moons are ‘ocean worlds’— they contain liquid oceans, which can support the formation of life. Does life exist on ocean worlds?
