“All these worlds are yours, except Europa…” The Europa Clipper successfully launched in October, its mission: determine the habitability of Jupiter’s ice moon and the potential for drinkable water underneath that ice.  With that comes the almost certainty of some form of life under the icy surface. Will it be tentacled seaweed flower whales or something more…elemental? It’s the closest we’ve ever come to discovering life elsewhere in the universe, and now the whole world is talking about Europa. 2010 has been at the center of the discussion, from the movie’s probe and the fate of the Chinese mission TSIEN in the book. But everyone can agree on one thing: Attempt no landing there. Plus: a seaweed cephalopod shvitz, the Martian Pangaea, and an Eli Schwab original!   Help children now with UNICEF Find more at spacepodyssey.com BlueSky @spacepodyssey Instagram @spacepodyssey2001 Facebook at @spacepodyssey Twitter @spacepodyssey email us at spacepodyssey2001@gmail.com 100% PRODUCED, RECORDED, EDITED & RELEASED without artificial intelligence.
