Water ice is not as scarce in space as once believed. It is present in various forms throughout the solar system, including comets, asteroids, and planetary bodies such as Mercury, the Moon, Mars, and even Saturn's moon Enceladus and the dwarf planet Ceres. Researchers from NASA consider Europa, one of Jupiter's moons, as a potential location for extraterrestrial life, thanks to the possibility of a vast liquid water ocean beneath its icy exterior. However, the composition of water ice is not uniform, as demonstrated by the different types found on Comet 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko by the European Space Agency's Rosetta spacecraft
