A recent study suggests that Uranus's moon Ariel likely has a deep, hidden ocean up to 100 miles beneath its icy surface, formed by tidal flexing and orbital eccentricity, which caused fractures and resurfacing, and may have frozen over in the past billion years. The presence of ammonia and surface features support the idea of a subsurface ocean, making Ariel a potential ocean world worth further exploration.
ESA's exoplanet mission, Ariel, has successfully completed the spacecraft preliminary design phase and is now moving into the construction phase.

ESA's next-generation exoplanet surveyor, Ariel, has successfully completed its payload Preliminary Design Review (PDR), marking a significant milestone in its development. The review confirmed that the mission's payload design meets all technical and scientific requirements, allowing the project to proceed to the Critical Design Review (CDR) phase. Ariel aims to observe around 1000 exoplanets, studying their chemical makeup and atmospheric conditions to gain insights into planet formation and evolution. The mission will also lay the groundwork for future searches for extraterrestrial life and planets similar to Earth.
