Looking Skyward: A hint of life on a moon of Saturn?

NASA/JPL/Space Science Institute
NASA's Cassini mission spotted icy geysers erupting on Saturn's moon Enceladus.

In this edition of Looking Skyward, CAI's John Basile talks with Dr. Regina Jorgenson of the Maria Mitchell Observatory on Nantucket about new findings of phosphorous on Saturn's moon Enceladus. Could it be a sign of life as we on earth recognize it?
