There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Something is happening beneath the ice on Saturn's moon, Enceladus. New Earthly research offers more proof that microbes could potentially thrive in the briny water of the moon's subserface ocean. The School of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences' Jennifer Glass interprets the findings, saying that allthough there is a potential that the methane in Enceladus has biological sources, the study has its limitations.
