What NASA Discovered on Jupiter’s Icy Moon Europa Is Stunning!

Crisscrossing Europa, one of Jupiter's mysterious icy moons, are vast cracks and discoloured streaks that combine to create a complex, yet beautiful world. And when looked at even closer, many more strange features can be seen, such as Europa's mysterious "freckles". So what are these "freckles? And what is causing the chaotic fractures that weave across Europa's frozen landscape? Join me as we take a look at real images of the solar system's most promising place for life beyond Earth. We will take a look at what NASA's Galileo spacecraft saw as it passed by. We will look at future missions that may make new and exciting discoveries about Europa, and we will peer below the ice as we take a look at the evidence that might reveal a massive secret ocean.

Which ocean world would you like to explore next? and do you think that below Europa's ice shell there is life? Let me know below! V

No clickbait titles or thumbnails, content worth watching, good quality. Keep it up man, this is what gets people to watch and come back for the next video!

What’s fascinating is that they would only need to find one microbe and it changes everything.

With liquid saltwater comes the possibility of bacteria or even more complex chemosynthetic lifeforms similar to those found in the deep oceans of our planet. It's really exciting to think about! Great video!

For the last 6 months i've been obsessed about space. This channel makes awesome videos. Love the music, pictures and the narrative. Now im on a track to get my first telescope. Cant wait to start exploring the nigth sky.

This is a science channel done right. The back ground music combined with the narration, great pictures, video and that great back ground music gives the viewer the impression of being out to were those distant worlds are. It is the closet thing to be actually at those planets.

Magnificent Video.
Its 2AM here in 🇮🇳 Now I can Sleep with Space Dreams

[Chompchompyerded]

Darn! I won't live long enough to see those last two missions. I do hope everyone who will live to see it will find their discoveries fascinating.

Amazing pictures of the surface. It's mind blowing how every picture shown is an actual landscape existing there right now. Id pay a lot of money to see how it would look standing there watching the horizon.

[DavoYK]

This is so interesting. Could you imagine the possible abundance of life just below the surface? Great work.

I'm getting old now, but the future launch of the Clipper and its 7 year journey tells me there's a lot more to live for.
Thanks, waiting for the launch of the James Web telescope has kept me going so far!
(And now we got aliens!) What a GREAT time to be alive.

Excellence Video as Always, Thanks V. 👍

[johnkeviljr]

I would bet my life, that life exists on either, or both, Europa and Enceladus, in our own solar system. If that is eventually determined to be the case, then that/those discoveries would signal that life will be found to be abundant throughout the Milky Way Galaxy. I hope I am still around for the discovery/confirmation. Thank You V101. Wonderful video.

[SeanBond]

Much appreciated! So very interesting! Cheers!

[jerryscarbrough]

Excellent video and information! Fascinating stuff

So crazy to think the core is warm, and could have oceans of water underneath the ice that could harbor life.

[Fireball_Roberts]

I'm glad NASA is finally taking icy moons more seriously. The endless exploration of Mars is getting a bit out of hand, with most of the news reports centering around NASA finding things they put there themselves- like an orbiter spotting a rover, or a rover spotting debris from the old landing apparatus.
