Gravity Investigation to Characterize Enceladus's Ocean and Interior

A key objective for the future exploration of the icy moon Enceladus is the characterization of the habitable conditions in its internal ocean. Radio science instrumentation on board a spacecraft in a low-altitude orbit about Enceladus would enable gravity measurements that are fundamental to provid...
