There is an ocean on Europa which contains liquid water. Other than the Earth, Europa is the only place in the solar system where we have found liquid water. Life as we know it is very dependent upon liquid water, and life is believed to have originally evolved in the water, before moving to the land.

Scientists think that europa may have what?
The scientists think that Europa can have the life on it.
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.
What do scientists believe that europa may have?
I have read somewhere that scientists think that europa may have an underground ocean.
What do scientists believe Europa has?
Icy Caps
What have scientists discovered about Europa?
An icy surface.
Why are Titan and Europa specially interesting objects?
They may have life.
What do scientists believe europa has on its surface?
A thick layer of ice
What is europa moon made of?
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.
What do scientist think might exist under Europa's crust?
Scientists believe that there is liquid water, under the crust of Europa.
Which moon do scientists believe to have a liquid ocean?
Europa - a moon of Jupiter.
Scientists thing europa may have?
A saline ocean beneath it's crust.
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.
