    I adore astronomy, I especially love Jupiter's moons! I am amazed by the idea of life in Europa's underground ocean.

    Yes I too believe Europa has a ocean under the ice. The main reason this could be possible is because Jupiter and also Saturn give off more energy than they get (plus heat). The heat from these 2 planets plus the moon's core is probably very warm could result in Europa having life.

    I'm working on a solar system.

    did you know, the universe is a donut, expanding from the inside like an innertube blowing up. we live on the outside edge, which is 3 dimensional (not including time) so i would draw the conclusion that the INSIDE of the donut is 4 dimensional. kindof cool concept.

    Theory...
    I would have thought that we are in the 4th dimension, but we can only observe it, not travel through it and so on (I'm probably wrong on this one)... I have done a lot of research in the past about the 4th dimension.

    Did you know that Saturn has a moon that, without any protective clothing, could maintain human life for 4 minutes, and with an oxygen tank... a lot longer.
    And one of Jupiter's moons is too hot for life... one of them has heated water at the bottom of its sea, near volcano vents.

    Heated water vents? That's Europa.

    Yes... I didn't know the name.

    Did every one know that there is a dwarf planet called Ceres in between Mars and Jupiter.

    Yup, it was originally classified as an asteroid and could be colonized by people.

    if we could only send another cassini probe (yes i also love astronomy) with a Lander to Europa that contains a Exploration like those on Mars we might be able to prove it.
