That’s it then, there must be some kind of life in those vents on Europa.
- Cthulhu_ 3y agoWell, "must" is a bit absolutist, but if the assertion is that life COULD live there, then sure! The question then is: did it form there independently from life on earth, or does it have a common ancestor? If the former, then we can assert that the universe has to be teeming with life; then the Fermi paradox kicks in. If the latter, then we really have to think about things; did life form on earth and somehow find its way to Europa? Or did it come from somewhere else? It's interesting to think about. I hope they will launch a permanent orbiter and / or a lander to Europa soon. Although that comes with its own dangers of contamination.
