Saturn’s moon Mimas, discovered in 1789 by William Herschel, may conceal a vast ocean beneath its surface. As the smallest and innermost of Saturn’s major moons, Mimas is also known as Saturn I. A recent analysis suggests a relatively “young” ocean formed on Mimas approximately 5 to 15 million years ago, adding intrigue to the moon’s geological history.
