NASA is creating ‘snake-like EELS’ that will crawl over one of Saturn's moons in search of extraterrestrial life. The Jet Propulsion Laboratory of NASA is creating the EELS (Exobiology Extant Life Surveyor) in preparation for a voyage to Enceladus, one of its 83 moons. The snake-like robot will independently map, move through, and investigate previously unreachable locations. According to NASA, Enceladus conceals a vast ocean of liquid, salty water beneath its crust.
