A project called SWIM aims to send tiny robot fish to explore hidden oceans on Europa and Enceladus, looking for signs of extraterrestrial life.
A 'SWARM' of tiny robot fish could hunt for alien life in hidden oceans on the icy moons of Jupiter and Saturn. SWIM, which stands for Sensing With Independent Micro-swimmers, is a project designed to look for extraterrestrial life. Scientists have long believed that signs of past or present life could be found on Jupiter's Europa and Saturn's Enceladus .
The SWIM project aims to explore these moons by sending small, independent underwater robots, about the size of a smartphone, that can navigate through oceanic environments. These robots are designed to detect signs of life, particularly focusing on the presence of water, which is believed to be essential for life. NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory has developed prototypes that could eventually be used in missions to explore hidden oceans on Europa and Enceladus. Europa is roughly 390 million miles away from Earth, but scientists believe it could harbor alien life within its saltwater ocean
