NASA Researchers: Ocean on Jupiter's Moon Europa May Be Able to Sustain Life
NASA researchers said that the subsurface ocean on Jupiter’s moon Europa could be habitable for life. In the latest research presented at the virtual Goldschmidt geochemistry conference, scientists explain a new model showing the composition of the interior ocean of Europa and other physical characteristics of its hidden layers.
