Enceladus (Videos 1 /2 / 3)(27 People)
Enceladus has snow, ice (less than a mile thick), over 70 geysers, and a 25 mile deep ocean. The Space Ocean Corp goal of taking surface and subsurface level video of Enceladus’ oceans is not to find life, but to satisfy the survival instinct, and 100% guarantee there is useful water on Enceladus; & to pump/collect/or store that water into a known sized container for sale to space organizations.
Our commercial mission to Enceladus is a water collection and a photography mission for survival (rocket fuel, oxygen, drinking, radiation protection, hygiene). One gallon of water on Mars and elsewhere in the solar system is valued at $1 billion dollars per gallon. (25 Intriguing Questions About Enceladus.) We intend to collect 1,500 to 100,000 gallons of water.
- We can land a private water mission on Enceladus in the 2030s.

- Info:
- Enceladus is very active and exciting because of the tiger stripe region on its south pole which would be a good entry point to its 25 mile deep ocean. Over 70 geysers exist on the south pole region of Enceladus which put out 250 Kg of water every second at speeds of up to 1200 mph.
