Using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), astronomers discovered that Ariel, a moon of Uranus, could be hiding in a buried liquid water ocean. The discovery could supply an answer to a mystery ...

U sing the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), astronomers have made a remarkable discovery about Ariel, one of Uranus' moons. The findings suggest that Ariel may harbour a hidden subsurface liquid ...

Ariel, Uranus’s fourth largest moon, is thought to be made of equal parts rock and ice. A new computer model developed at the University of Texas Institute for Geophysics could be used to detect ...

New observations by the James Webb Space Telescope suggest that an icy moon around Uranus may have an underground liquid ocean. Ariel is one of 27 moons around Uranus, the seventh planet from the ...

An animation demonstrating how Uranus’s moon Ariel might wobble with an interior ocean (right) versus being solid through to the core (left). The depicted wobbles are exaggerated. A UTIG ...

For example, if Uranus's moon Ariel wobbles 300 feet, then it's likely to have an ocean 100 miles deep surrounded by a 20-mile-thick ice shell. Detecting smaller oceans will mean a spacecraft will ...

One or two of Uranus ' 27 moons - Ariel and/or Miranda - likely have oceans beneath their icy surfaces and are actively spewing material into the space environment, according to a study by NASA.

For example, if Uranus's moon Ariel wobbles 300 feet, then it's likely to have an ocean 100 miles deep surrounded by a 20-mile-thick ice shell. Detecting smaller oceans will mean a spacecraft will ...
