Astronomers using NASA’s Hubble
Space Telescope

2
00:00:02,803 --> 00:00:06,907
have directly imaged what may be
plumes of water vapor

3
00:00:06,907 --> 00:00:09,877
on Jupiter’s icy moon Europa.

4
00:00:09,877 --> 00:00:14,414
Europa likely harbors a global
ocean of water beneath its
surface of ice.

5
00:00:14,414 --> 00:00:19,019
The existence of water vapor
plumes could provide an early
glimpse into the ocean’s conditions.

6
00:00:19,019 --> 00:00:22,522
Over ten observations, 

7
00:00:22,522 --> 00:00:26,326
the team saw possible plumes on
three images.
