Are aliens on Saturn's MOON? On Enceladus, scientists find phosphates

According to experts at Freie Universität Berlin, the hunt for extraterrestrial life in our solar system has just begun. According to NASA's old Cassini spacecraft (depicted bottom right), the presence of phosphates - a key component of life on Saturn's sixth-largest moon - is shown. Phosphate is the primary source of phosphorus, which supplies a quarter of all of the nutrients that plants need for their growth and development. Its presence on Enceladus has led to credible claims that there is some sort of life on the moon, perhaps microbial. The chart, top right, shows spikes in the Cassini results that are indicative of phosphates.

Cone Nebula's latest snapshot of the'star-factory' makes it seem that it is a mythical creature

A haunting photograph of the Cone Nebula, a star-forming region in the Milky Way Galaxy about 2,500 light years from Earth, makes it seem like a mythological creature. The latest photo, taken by the European Space Observatory's telescopes earlier this year, shows the nebula's more prominent and cloudy appearance in a way that makes it seem quite mysterious. The Cone Nebula's seven-year-long pillar was discovered by astronomer William Herschel in the late 18th century and first detected in the late 18th century. The Cone Nebula's unique shape is due to the massive clouds of cold molecular gas and dust that are responsible for the creation of new stars.

The public asked Ice Giant Missions, an unofficial Twitter account, that they would designate a new mission to Uranus. Some people took the challenge seriously, including Herschel (the British astronomer who found Uranus), Caelus (the Roman version of Uranus) and Ymir (the Ice Giant in Norse mythology). However, others went down a marginally more effective route, with Operation Butt Plug, Enema, and Colonoscopy One among others among others.
