Exploring Europa on Earth
December 8, 2008 / Written by: Henry Bortman
A liquid ocean may lie hidden beneath the icy surface of Jupiter’s moon Europa. Astrobiologists theorize that hydrothermal vents at the bottom of this ocean could provide all of the ingredients needed to support life – much like the hydrothermal vents at the bottom of Earth’s oceans. Exploring such habitats on Europa won’t be as easy as it is on our own planet, which is why NASA-funded engineers from Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution plan to practice on Earth first.Source: [Astrobiology Magazine]
