Scientists think that europa may have what?
The scientists think that Europa can have the life on it.
Europa is a remarkable moon because it?
Europa is a remarkable moon because it may be comprised of mostly liquid water under a layer of ice. Europa is one of the moons of Jupiter.
What moon Europa was named by Galileo?
The question may mean "Was the moon Europa named by Galileo?" The answer to that is NO. Galileo discovered this moon, but it was named by another astronomer, called Simon Marius.
What do scientists believe that europa may have?
I have read somewhere that scientists think that europa may have an underground ocean.
Sciencetist think that europa may have what?
Water
Why is europa interesting to scientists?
There may be life under Europa's vast oceans. It is cold, but heat from the moon's core and Jupiter's magnetic field may make it habitable for organisms under the ice.
Why do some people think that there may be life on Europa?
Because there are materials in Europa which Earth also contain. A example of this is H2o (Water)
What makes Europa Special?
Jupiters moon, Europa, is special as it is thought to have a huge layer of water under its crust. This water may be able to support simple life forms if the conditions are right.
Which moon has liquid water in it?
It is thought that Europa, one of the moons of Jupiter, may have liquid water beneath a frozen surface.
There may be liquid water under a thick layer of ice?
The other person who answered this said Mars. This could be true on Mars's north and south pole, but its not entirely covered in ice. Ceres, the dwarf planet in the asteroid belt, and Europa, a jovian moon, may possess the qualities you included in your questions.
Why do scientists think that Europa might have the conditions for life to develop?
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.
What do scientists think Europa may have?
As the Jovian moon Europa has a magnetic field, it is thought that it has a salty, liquid, 100Km deep water ocean (under a layer of ice) and a metallic iron core. Scientists are considering the possibility that this water ocean may contain some form of life. They are already conceptually designing and even engineering technology that would be able to pass through the ice and explore those theorized depths.
