Tidal Heating Activity

Stretching elastic bands! Changing stretching = friction = heat Gravity stretches Moons = tidal force Changing tidal forces also cause heat Certain arrangements result in lots of stretching

The Rings of Saturn Enceladus & the E ring!

Summary Some moons are far from the Sun but are heated somehow Gravity stretches moons = tidal force Changing tidal forces provides heat by friction Heated moons can have volcanoes, geysers, and oceans! –Tidal heating means water can be a liquid even in places far from the Sun. Where there’s water, there might be life! Follow the water!
