NASA has called a press conference on Monday when the space agency will announce a breakthrough on the planet Europa.
The US group sent out a cryptic message, stating that there is “surprising activity” on Europa – the most well known of Jupiter’s 67 moons.
NASA has been analysing data from its Hubble Space Telescope which is currently prowling the universe.
The space experts said in a statement announcing the event on Monday, to be broadcast live at 7PM UK time: “Astronomers will present results from a unique Europa observing campaign that resulted in surprising evidence of activity that may be related to the presence of a subsurface ocean on Europa.”
Most scientists agree that where there is water, it massively increases the chances of finding life.
Europa has long been touted as a possible host of life elsewhere in the Solar System, and even boffins working on the Juno Probe, which is currently in orbit around Jupiter, believe that it could be a likely habitable zone for some lifeforms.
NASA - Not Actually in Space Anymore
Click bait. No actual information about life on Europa.
And if there’s ice, there can be whiskey...
Yeah. What do you expect from a movie that stared Scheider & Lithgow
No i mean clarkes two books after 2010. His plots, especially the last one.

I’m not familiar with those works.
2061, and 3001.
The aliens behind the monoliths ultimately decide humans are a threat to them and plot to destroy us.
