    “Then you say, ‘A-ha, there must be compensation,’ ” Dr. Stevenson said. “Something more dense under the ice. The natural candidate is water.”
-It's sentences like that last one that give non-scientists pause. The article seems like a declaration of water definitively on Enceladus but then it appears to be speculative. Which is it? How certain are we?
