    I’m guessing that the assumption is that the water protects any life from the radiation from Saturn?

    Or is the moon far enough away that that’s not an issue that needs to be protected from?

        Both are valid, the sun can’t be too far away life needs light a energy source.

        Which Enceladus – as moon of a gas giant – has plenty, as tidal forces.
