that does not matter we are getting a moon base ^^

It really depends on the seismic activity and possible heat sources deep under the ice. If there is a heat source, there's q good chance of life existing.

Europe and here in Minnesota are about the same temperature. So maybe it's possible.
Although this winter has been pretty weak.
What if a lifeform evolved without the need for anything we would expect?
more than likely the place will be completely sterile
that's not saying that we couldn't put some bacteria over there, but odds are we wouldn't find anything
I hold a strong belief that there is atleast microbial life in the giant ocean underneath.

Mars has no Ozone which protects the planet from the suns radioactive rays, meaning we would have to synthesize it out of oxygen which is possible today, I thought the estimate was 25,000 years if we had the proper technology to do it at a fast rate[/QUOTE]
I remember reading somewhere NASA had pooled together a few scientists and sent them on the idea of how to go about terraforming Mars within reasonable time. They concluded if we spent somewhere on the order of billions on constructing, loading, and launching of thousands of machines to the surface of Mars it could be done. The machines would slowly traverse across the surface, sucking up the dirt and debris beneath it. The machines would burn what they picked out and expell the C02 and other greenhouse gasses. I think they said they could warm up Mars (theoretically) to the point of habitation within 200 years or something like that.
Biggest challenge is getting the machines there of course.
I've also heard of launching nukes in the upper atmosphere to raise the overall temperature and also detonating nukes beneath the surface to try and restart the geothermic cycle of the planet. Crazy shit those scientists think up.
Though this was troll thread since Europa in Norwegian is Europe in English. (Of course we could live in Europe...)
But, It's probably too far from the sun. Unless some scientist make some breakthroughs, heating the planet to a normal human temperature.
[QUOTE=Mr. Sun;34116575]To be honest, a lot of the debate threads should be left to Stephen Hawking and other great minds, not for a bunch of extreme liberal teenagers with barely a high school education to debate. We don't know crap.
So I will say this in response to the thread,
I would hope so but I think scientists are more interested in finding it on Mars.[/QUOTE]
no nigga YOU don't know shit

Its obviously not far enough from the sun if the water exists in a liquid state. The internal temperature of the moon heats the ice creating a large body of water under the surface which might be able to sustain life...
