The US space agency will hold a press briefing tomorrow to reveal a discovery that will 'help inform future ocean world exploration'.
The source, a former NASA worker has suggested that the space agency will announce that they have found evidence of chemical activity in an alien ocean on Enceladus, a moon of Saturn.
NASA responded saying that 'These new discoveries will help inform future ocean world exploration - including Nasa's upcoming Europa Clipper mission planned for launch in the 2020s, and the broader search for life beyond Earth,'
But Keith Cowing, an analyst for Astrobiology and and former Nasa employee, claims Nasa scientists have discovered chemical activity inside hydrothermal vents on the icy moon of Enceladus.

'On Thursday Nasa will announce evidence that hydrothermal activity on the floor of an ice-covered ocean on Saturn's moon Enceladus is most likely creating methane from carbon dioxide,' Mr Cowing wrote in Astrobiology.
'The process is indicative of possible habitable zones within the ocean of Enceladus.'
'Before we go any further, 'habitable' does not mean 'inhabited'.'
