you have a question you have a question
you got a question on the universe hello
hello you are I'm Steve welcome you got
a question on the universe yes if the
technology existed what planet would you
want to visit in why I wouldn't visit a
planet at all I visit a moon of the
planet Jupiter Europa and why is that
because Europa which would naturally be
Frozen at such a great distance from the
Sun is kept warmed by the gravitational
stress from Jupiter and other moons
themselves okay and if you warm ice you
melt it right and so what you have
beneath the outer ice Coating in Europa
is this liquid ocean of water it's been
liquid for billions of years I want to
go ice fishing on Europa cuz every place
on Earth where we find liquid water we
find life so in our search for life in
the universe we follow the water see if
something swims up to the camer camland
and licks the land that's what I want
think that's something
will we're working on we got top people
working on it now
