Even more interesting, the salinity of some of the oceans on various moons
is beleived to be within striking range of Earth's oceans.

E.g. last guess I saw for Enceldus was 4-40 g/kg with Earth std around 35.
Salinity and dissolved oxygen in liquid water are inversely related no 
matter where thay are which may hint that DO in Enceledus' ocean is also 
in ballpark range of Earth, maybe even higher (if less saline than 35%%).

I'm hoping to ask someone that knows, eventually. :)
