active volcanoes Ice several miles thick, and oceans of liquid water beneath the ice.
I have read somewhere that scientists think that europa may have an underground ocean.
Icy Caps
A thick layer of ice
Europa - a moon of Jupiter.
Scientists believe that there is liquid water, under the crust of Europa.
The scientists think that Europa can have the life on it.
Many scientists believe that Europa may hold water, or at least ice which could mean there is a possibility of life on one of Jupiter's moons.
An icy surface.
Europa is covered with ice and underneath a layer of ice there is an ocean that scientists think might have life living in it. Also Europa has many cracks on it.
A saline ocean beneath it's crust.
As far was we know the development requires water in its liquid for to be present and a source of energy to supply/drive chemical reactions. We know that deep down Europa has a liquid layer (of water) and the geysers of this water into space proves that there is energy in Europa's core.
Scientists belive that Europa has a layer of water beneth is icy crust, which could potentially harbour simple life forms.
