Potential plumes on Europa could come from water in the crust

Plumes of water vapor that may be venting into space from Jupiter’s moon Europa could come from within the icy crust itself, according to new research. A model outlines a process for brine, or salt-enriched water, moving around within the moon’s shell and eventually forming pockets of water—even more concentrated with salt—that could erupt.
