UM-Bot Posted September 22, 2013 #1 Share Posted September 22, 2013 A new crowd-researched space project is looking to launch an ambitious manned mission to Europa. Consisting of what many scientists believe to be a vast liquid water ocean surrounded by an icy shell, Jupiter\'s icy moon Europa is considered to be the single most promising place in our solar system to look for signs of alien life. The problem is however that so far nobody has attempted to send a probe there to find out, but a talented group of space enthusiasts is aiming to change all that.

pallidin Posted September 23, 2013 #3 Share Posted September 23, 2013 I'm no astrophysicist or whatever, but wouldn't first a probe make much more sense than a human suicide mission? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skookum Posted September 23, 2013 #5 Share Posted September 23, 2013 They say it is manageable with today's technology. But how would a human crew survive the massive amount of radiation Jupiter sends out and floods it's moons? Surely they would be dead long before arriving?

highdesert50 Posted September 23, 2013 #8 Share Posted September 23, 2013 (edited) Outlandish, yes. But, what an interesting method, to allow many people to become investors in future science while vicariously adventuring to an alien landscape. Could be that imaginative scientific endeavors that pique interests at a global level can begin to build upon our common interests rather than obsessing on our differences. About that colony on Mars ... Edited September 23, 2013 by highdesert50 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
