Implications of shallow-shell models for topographic relaxation on icy satellites
Colin R. Meyer, Aaron G. Stubblefield, Brent M. Minchew +4
Icy satellites host topography at many length scales, from rifts and craters on the small end to equatorial-pole shell thickness differences that are comparable to these bodies' ci…
A mushy source for the geysers of Enceladus
Colin R. Meyer, Jacob J. Buffo, Francis Nimmo +5
Enceladus is a primary target for astrobiology due to the plume ejecta measured by the Cassini spacecraft and the inferred subsurface ocean sustained by tidal heating. S…
The science case for spacecraft exploration of the Uranian satellites: Candidate ocean worlds in an ice giant system
Richard J. Cartwright, Chloe B. Beddingfield, Tom A. Nordheim +15
The 27 satellites of Uranus are enigmatic, with dark surfaces coated by material that could be rich in organics. Voyager 2 imaged the southern hemispheres of Uranus' five largest '…
The Science Case for Spacecraft Exploration of the Uranian Satellites
Richard J. Cartwright, Chloe B. Beddingfield, Tom Nordheim +14
The five classical Uranian moons are possible ocean worlds that exhibit bizarre geologic landforms, hinting at recent surface-interior communication. However, Uranus' classical moo…
