Besides Mars, extraterrestrial life could exist on the icy world of the outer solar system. Titan and Enceladus are potential hosts besides Jupiter's icy moons Europa, Ganymede and Callisto.
The complex mission faces several technical challenges requiring significant study and technology development. NASA will continue studying and developing those technologies.
