New paper alert: for Mimas to have an ocean today, it must be geologically young. doi.org/10.1016/j.epsl.2024.…

New potential icy ocean world just dropped in the outer solar system! sciencenews.org/article/satu…
Saturn’s moon Mimas might harbor a hidden ocean

Saturn’s moon Mimas might harbor a hidden ocean

A fresh look at Cassini data reveals slight changes in the tiny moon’s orbit that suggest the presence of a vast ocean beneath the satellite’s icy shell.

That’s no moon, it’s an ocean world. Comments from @aRhoDynamics and @geomathMEW, words by @AstroKimCartier eos.org/articles/thats-no-mo…
That’s No Moon; It’s an Ocean World - Eos

That’s No Moon; It’s an Ocean World - Eos

If Saturn’s cratered moon Mimas has liquid water beneath its surface, ocean worlds might be far more common in the solar system than we thought.

Given all the Twitter love for my pup after #lpsc2023, I though y’all might enjoy a pic of her watching clone wars. #starwars #dogsoftwitter

Had a funny thought whilst prepping for my #lpsc2023 talk today… I wonder if I have ever been the person people are scared to get questions from. I still get scared of the people I was scared of as a student!

I’m assuming that the lack of comments means I am not scary. Woo!

The family really enjoyed @Disney #strangeworld but I’m bummed that the only Legend stuffed animal in their shop has four legs. We loved that Legend was a #tripoddog.

Excited to share our new paper on the origins of Charon's canyons and cryovolcanism, published in Icarus. TL;DR: an ocean origin for flows is unlikely without a MUCH thinner past ice shell. authors.elsevier.com/a/1gDjq…

Great article from @TheAtlantic on the new @NASAJuno images of Europa & the upcoming @EuropaClipper mission. Includes my thoughts about the new images and the potential for life in Europa’s ocean. Thanks for a great story @marinakoren! theatlantic.com/science/arch…
There’s Hope for Life on Europa, a Distant Moon

Beneath its frozen surface could be a salty ocean—and maybe a comfortable home for small life forms.

Thanks to @NASAJuno, there's a new image of #Europa that has gotten me super jazzed about science. Just what I needed today! Here are some side-by-sides I put together of Galileo/Voyager mosaics (left) and the new Juno data (right).

I've been in this field for 22 years, and last night, I sobbed over how I should quit because none of my proposals got funded, and I'm clearly not good enough. Rejection is hard. Always. It's okay to be sad. Always. DO NOT QUIT. Because you ARE good enough.
