This seems like the relevant place to post this (could be wrong): Water plumes from Europa? Apologies if it's already been up. The link to the Science article at the bottom doesn't work for me, does anyone have a working link to the original? Cheers.

Apparently, Europa joins Enceladus in having active water plumes observable in the present.
http://www.sciencemag.org/content/early/20...science.1247051 This might suggest tailoring exploration plans, already in progress, to focus on the study of these plumes, if they are continuous enough to be active when a putative mission could observe them in situ. |
