Definitely, since I was a little kid I have been imagining whales swimming in Europa's underground oceans, only waiting for us to drill a hole deep enough to find them.
Can anybody who's looked into this topic further tell me why this may not be the case? Would the pressure down there be too big, would it be too cold or what other possibilities could prevent a planet with oceans to manifest life?
