TL;DR Summary

The James Webb space telescope has made a surprising discovery in the Kuiper belt, revealing that the frozen objects on the outskirts of our solar system may not be as lifeless as previously thought. By studying dwarf planets Eris and Makemake, the telescope found evidence of recent activity, suggesting the possibility of hotter interiors and potential oceans beneath the surface. This unexpected find could point to the existence of "living" dwarf planets in the Kuiper belt, similar to Jupiter's moon Europa, although further exploration is currently limited by the vast distance from Earth.
