Europa "Life"

[sawdoctors]

Why do the creatures look like pokemon?

[LifeIsABigPuzzle]

I bet that there are lots of lantern fish swimming around underneath the surface of Europa! :D

[jdaniels161]

make on with titan

[Doopdon]

cant parachute to Europa there is no atmosphere

[giantchicken891]

LOL why would the life have eyes, since its pitch black

[JordoF6]

@giantchicken891 actually it may not be it could be lighted up by biolusme plants.

[claton95]

@JordoF6 what's that

[JordoF6]

@claton95 Some plants light themselves up look at avatar the movie as an example when their walking around at night everything lights up.

[claton95]

@giantchicken891 good point. Maybe they have little flash lights on their heads.

[lgblgblgblgb]

@ShoeTossLady Yes, habitable zone is calculated by the energy emission of the star of the given solar system and the given distance of a planet from it, so it's purely about the energy from the star (our Sun in this example) enough to have liquid water. But there are other kind of sources of energy/heat which is suitable to result in liquid water it seems ...

[ScienceFictionHairdo]

Ahsum XD

[jdaniels161]

please do one when aliens visit earth oceans in hope to find life but when the surface a city is revealed to them

[jdaniels161]

is that a city or giant one of those things

[animalkindness]

so pretty!

[EdMcStinko]

1:45 that would make a great pet

[daeymz]

cute lil thing in the beginning lmao

[TheCottonTop]

Abyss rip off. Best movie of all time, by the way.

[DeviousBetrayer]

I'm I the only one who got a boner from this video?

[tr14lz]

@ShoeTossLady

I think this particular circumstance is limited to things that are able to very close to a massive body at relatively high speed, such as jovian moons. Planets would still need to be in the habitable zone. But yeah, the habitable zone may not be the only place to look for life.

[sesshy34]

I don't believe we may encounter any Life Forms in Europa, Jupiter's Deadly Blasts of Radiation that are 10 x Times the Lethal Dose to kill any Living being on Earth would Sterilize Europa for sure from any Living beings, unless of course these beings were adapted to be resistant against these Deadly blasts of Radiations.

[germanyia]

@sesshy34 good point.

[Adono86]

@sesshy34 interesting point... but considering how thick the ice is and that life can be unpredictable... you never know.... best place to look...

[Videos4USArmy]

@sesshy34 We know of many organisms and microbes that are not effected by high doses of radiation.

[Jswan500]

@sesshy34 The Majority of Radiation does not peirce through the miles and miles of Ice

[mewtwo8006]

ther is life on europa we humans must find it and leavid alone

[Glennfalconi]

There is radiation danger on the surface. If it makes a hole... Won't it go through the water too?

[Glennfalconi]

Since it's constantly moving and stretching that means it's creating heat.

[Rep0007]

You think cute Disney squids are down there, and choir music is gonna play all nice and awesome.

But you're wrong.

Cthulhu is down there waiting for someone to break the ice so he can escape! Don't go there! You gonna need a different soundtrack for that one--like a chorus of 2000 people screaming in terror!

[LayneStaley01]

@Rep0007 that is one of the funnier comments i have read recently

[radonas]

@Rep0007 while he is playing choir music and drinking i guess water

[richardsadilek]

@Rep0007 of course trying to contact E. T. is dangerous, because they might have the same "colonialist" tendencies for humanity as the europeans-conquistadors had for native americans for example. but europa (the moon) is different from europe in this. if they cant break the ice sheet (just about three miles thick) and havent been in outer space or havent landed on other galilean moons for example (if they did so, we should have noticed it), encountering them is no risk for humanity.

[Tabbimura]

@richardsadilek

These jellyfish-like beigns would be blissfully unnaware of the universe around them. If they exist I just hope humans won't screw their lifes.

[cristinutam]

I have been waiting for this for 10 years! since i was 12! so exciting!

[blazak]

Just read Arthur C. Clarke's 2061. Let's hurry up and find out!

[schuf1]

I definitely belive it. If there is life elsewhere in our Solar System, then Europa is the best candidate. I expect full water creatures once we make it there.

[TheCottonTop]

I liked this movie better the first time I saw it.

When it was called The Abyss.

[ymonkey333]

damn one person did the whole visual effects!!!

[Anudar]

This is so beautiful and poetic. Thanks you very much for uploading...

[Coui0112358]

i d like so much if all that should be true!!

[SeeCrest534]

it be cool if we could send a bot like that to europa but since the ice is so thick we would just lose connection with it.

[ReconMasterCheif]

@ShoeTossLady Exactly,Well..Unless its closer to the sun like earth,Since the earth will leave the "habitable zone" 1-10 mil years?It we still have humans on it.Its just its gonna be ALOT hotter..

[ReconMasterCheif]

This could happen.Europa is mostly ice so there is definitly life.If Europa is 1 billion year old there is defintly some kind of singular celled organism.If its 2-4 Its probaly gonna have some kind of multi celled organisms.If its about has old has earth,and some life has something like a thumb so they could easily build things.Then there is defintly some kind of life like that or us.Same thing with titan,Except for it is like us.

[sahab999]

can we heat it up?

[voorhees4life]

if its in the what we call habital zone or not, if life is able to form on another planet no matter where it is it will adapt and survive. we are a carbon based lifeform, things from other planets might be made of something far more different than we could imagine, therefore, the thing we deem neccesary for life might be throwed ou the window...many different theories out there but their just someone's opinion..lol

[Frances42092]

Heige I know wat yuhh mean but we live on oxygen an bacteria

[Frances42092]

That's true we don't know every single species in our ocean we haven't been to the actual bottom so how would we know the species on jupiters moons ocean

[Frances42092]

Why are they trying to find life on another planet so they could ruin it like earth with all it's pollution I mean don't get me wrong it would be incredible but we can hardly take care of our own planet don't try to ruin another one

[Skaarjguy]

@Frances42092 We have to be on the fucking thing to pollute it like we're doing here. Sending a probe to the damn thing is about the most "pollution" these moons are going to see until we build a colony on it.

[SpongyOLlama]

we have to remember that EVERY single living creature on this planet shares the same beginning. That's why so many creatures have two eyes, and such (the comparisons are endless). The point is, anything that originates on another planet (moon, or whatever) is not going to look anything like us, and there will definitely be no basis for communication. It would be endlessly more difficult than trying to talk to an ant, there's just nothing in common.

[brutsi]

@SpongyOLlama Well, talking to an ant would be impossible, becuase it does not have the intelligence to comprehend anything at all, but an intelligent being would propably make an effort to try and understand us, as well as we would try to understand it. However, yes, it would be extremely challenging to communicate with alien life forms.

[SpongyOLlama]

@brutsi You don't understand my point, no matter how intelligent, any alien being would be far more foreign and unreachable to us as an insect... it wouldn't have eyes, it wouldn't see, feel, and hear at all the way that we or any other creature on this planet does. We wouldn't recognize each other as living creatures, creatures of earth are unique from anything that may be out there, there is no common basis, and there certainly is not such thing as a humanoid alien

[Max0Inq]

What if they find Rick Astley there?

[36cfrocksmysox123455]

so is it water? thats on the moon?

[dalekStewie]

not are moon, one of Jupiter's

[Greendayfan131313]

What if we found some huge, monsterous thing?

That would be so beast.

Anyway, I like these videos.

[TachieBillano]

I think we mostly agree this video's a bit on the wishful thinking side. But just to go a step further in the logic: When we speak of "civilization", we visualize cities with lights. But how would alien sentient life forms define it? What if they were made of "cell" types beyond our craziest imaginings? What if they were made of virus-like "cells"? Or of cells resembling computer microchips in structure and operation -- even cells requiring total encasement in immovable solids, like rock?

[36cfrocksmysox123455]

well the deeper we go in our ocean we find species that create there own light..so who knows

[djabor]

@TachieBillano I have been trying to make that point countless times, it seems even most scientists keep making that fundamental mistake of defining life and civilization from our human point of view!

[catluvr47]

kool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[vasant85]

oxygen was considered toxic to the first life form on earth which thrived in wated and released oxygen as toxic which later led to the formation of ozone without which we wouldnt be here to comment . unless we evolve to counterfeit uv rays from sun, ozone is very important.

[Helge129]

There is no reason why life should depend on oxygen, bacteria for exaple, some live from CO2 or methane even.

[hellzone100]

Anwsers to the question of why were are here... thats all it comes down to.

[TheArchon1]

to the people who say that the ice would be too thick to drill through. the grand canal on Europa is the thinnest ice on the whole moon, that would be the best place to drill. also everyone who reads this comment needs to read the space odyssey series because they have a very convening reason as to what life would look like and how it would survive.

[peppercat1515]

well now, that is rather science fiction-y that there would be civilization under there, or even complex life, but I wouldn't at all rule out the possibility of single celled or even small colonial organisms

[Sarkral]

well I think more complex life would be prossible but I share ur opinion that this civilization idea is pure science fiction; although I highl doubt that organisms there would have evolved eyes (even though we can't rule it out completly) as there is hardly any light; electro-, chemo- or thermoreceptors would be more likely in my opinion

[vidstrika22]

awesom!

[101avatar4]

O that look cool but what happen then made war AND THEY WERE SHOOTING AT US AND EATING OUR FISH

[moviemaker933]

Although life is possible on Europa, it would just be bacteria. And when we do go, if our space ship isn't sterilized, we could kill whatever is there.

[Fdzzaigl]

All space probes and apparatus are made under 100% sterile environment.

+Potential bacteria would need to survive in space for a couple of years ;)

[JackalClan]

Streptococcus survived 3 years on the Moon, and unprotected travel into space. Don't underestimate bacterias ability to survive.

[snuffwitch]

thats what humans di best is kill

[kalish86]

totally taken from abyss.

[eclipsemod]

Well, thats actually just one of the many reasons why we cant go yet. another thing i wanna point out is that you also have to consider that it takes up to 11 years just to europa so scientist may have to worry about making improvements to speed up the trip.

[revspikejonez]

Oh, great. Somebody watched the Abyss. This was cute, but not as impressive as the first half made it look.

[NightWatcher26]

Turthfully it would make more sence to spend money exploring a Moon of Jupiter's. That has better chance's of having life then a dead dry Planet like Mars. where the only type of water is in the form of ice at it's N. Pole where the Life IF life would be it would be frozen dead. So why are we wasting are time with Mars?

[Greenvalds]

I truly believe that there is life in Europa - the Moon has oxygen, water, vulcanic activity - there must be life.

[energyscience]

why cant we just go?!!

[ramzahnY]

Cute, but of course a slight rip off from "Abyss".

On the other hand, boring or melting through 300km ice is, as of today, a technologically completely unfeasible task, even here on earth.

[eclipsemod]

it is very possible and there are plans in the works to do so though it may take some years before it actually happens.

[ScionT2B]

That was Amazing!

[darthtater7777]

wonderful, i truly think our universe is amazing.

[bxexnxnxextt]

i heard europa was rescheduled for 2019...am I wrong?

[amirdoit]

Nasa planed for 2010 but now move to 2019 but I think Europe Space Agency is also planing somthing like this

[cody3290]

anyway, who says the united states would do this. i put my money on Russia finding a way first

[revspikejonez]

Oh yeah, with all of the money they're making doing... um... What is it that they do when they're not Capitalist or Communist?

[eclipsemod]

exporting woman?

[cody3290]

I saw this in a video my science teacher showed us at school, it was about life and geography or something. it was longer, though, with other organisms such as long-tentacled jelly fish, and strange winged things. Although i highly doubt that there could be life on Europa that is complex enough to form a civilization, there probably are some type of lifeforms, if even just bacterium surviving on the thermal vents.

[wowimatard]

yea no doubt if the scientist search the entire europa thej will find life i truly belive that xD

[Jekyllhyde360]

sounds like music from halo 3

[spoofman360]

also sea dragons,europans, and the jellyfish too

[ir0nmaiden13]

Europeans lmao....

[mojeda111]

i think there could be such creatures down in that ocean, but an entire civilazation?

[rksobers]

you never know

[ronlikesthecure]

greetings fellow purple-faced jelly man
