Need to send a probe that can scoop up the water that erupts from under Enceladus' ice covering.

I think something was growing on my enchilada the other day.

My money was always on Europa around Jupiter.

I bet there’s smaller version of Sea Lice in space

Life exists, without artificial support, on earth and nowhere else. Prove me wrong.

[rfp1234]

Does it come with rice and beans?

[humblegunner]

Enceladus are awesome, you can make ‘em at home and achieve proper meat and cheese ratios.

They keep saying “building blocks for life”.
That gives the impression that one can put these “blocks” together and construct life, as you would with Lego blocks.
No. Components found in living beings are also found in non-living beings.
However, it’s worth giving it a look!

They’re talking about mold and one celled things... not ‘life’ as we think of it. ‘Grant pimping’...

There was a dog of a Sci-Fi movie - college students under a rug, crawling about and devouring people - that had a gem of an idea that was used in real life years later.

At the end, the hero goes into the spacecraft (loaded with WWII surplus electronics) and discovers that the "monster" was just a living sampling device - dissolving humans to see what kind of life existed on Earth.

Years later I read that the Mars explorer was scooping up soil, dissolving it to find if any microbes existed (they didn't).

All the ingredients, huh?

Yesterday I put mayonnaise, tabasco, garlic salt, a hard boiled egg and tuna in a bowl. I watched it and nothing happened.

Then I added purposeful intelligent energy into it and lo and behold – delicious tuna salad!

All the building blocks for life have been found for the first time away from Earth, NASA announced – within our solar system.

...

It’s still not the kind of place to raise your kids.

They won't find life there. The odds against life developing on it's on own on earth is impossible. The odds against life developing on it's own in our universe is impossible. It's so impossible that the multi-verse theory needed to be created. The multi-verse postulates that there are an infinite number of universes and we just happened to be in the one that overcome the impossible.

God created life and man is the apex of that creation.

The same scientists who claim that there are lots of planets that can sustain life, also claim that if our planet becomes 1/2 degree warmer it will become uninhabitable.

Can’t win with these guys.
