NASA Found Possible Signs Of Life On Saturns Moon!

___________


Mimas is often called the Death Star because of its resemblance to the Star Wars space station that struck fear into the heart of millions. But Mimas isn't some dreaded creation of the Galactic Empire. Instead, it's a small moon of Saturn.

It's also, surprisingly enough, home to a lot of water.

For many years, scientists have assumed that Mimas was a big ball of ice because of its heavily cratered surface. But the Cassini mission from NASA determined what was really going on with the moon.

That's because while studying it, NASA saw that Mimas wobbles slightly as it spins on its axis, suggesting that there is an ocean deep below the moon's icy surface.

The concept of Mimas being an ocean world is a bit mind-blowing and would be the first of its kind. According to geophysicists, it would be a new class of small celestial bodies, "stealth" ocean worlds that don't seem like them because of their surfaces.

Alyssa Rhoden was the brilliant mind that made this discovery about Mimas and while there is no confirmation of her theory being correct, it has created new interest in this moon and the possible great, spewing ocean that lays deep below its surface.

So how would the underground ocean on Mimas work?

Remember that if we do find life on a moon with water like Mimas then we should expect it to look nothing like what life is on earth so no little bipedal green guys with UFOs. Life could just be some simple microbes or something completely different.

I'm waiting to hear about the unusual animals they may find. The universe is so vast, it seems strange that we are the only planet with life.

- Hopefully there is something there that we can eat

Man, who’s up on Saturn wondering around just finding random stuff?

[gordonstewart]

Not surprising. After all, water is the most abundant element in the universe, hydrogen, combined with oxygen, which isn't exactly rare.

What if ~ ~ ~ we are from mars and we were somewhat transferred here (somehow) _bysomeone after they eradicated the dinosaurs.... And we are looking at our past... how crazy is that

[trocadero]

We have ETs already on earth and possibly in the abyss ...great channel

Jesus is coming soon to take us home be ready everyone 🎺 🎺🎺 Repent and believe the Gospel 💝 If u confess with your mouth Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart God raised him from the dead u will be saved

[roaming.spectre.]

We all know about the sub surface oceans, what’s new ?

[Leopez]

Wow this IS so interesting another Life in our solar system under The saturn's moon. Man this IS AMAZING. 😮

Anyone, I keep hearing reports that Mars, billions of years ago, had water. In this video also. Why did Mars become so arid? Is it because the sun is expending energy and is less intense than before? Does that change in the sun continue so in a billion years (or more) the earth is baren and arid?

We would be considered aliens to other life forms in the universe right? So if we are they are💪🏾🇱🇨👍🏾

[Nissan_z]

The reason why its so hard to find intelligent life like our self's. Is because if we were so close to each other we would help other civilizations out on other worlds and that would not be good. Every planet with life like ours has to find their own way.

[ArchFundy]

Even if there is water under the ice on planets and/or moons, how would oxygen that is used by life be replenished?

[petersclafani]

If nasa found life it would be on every news network.

[angeloftimelessdispair]

Hasn't this been known for years?

[MPlain]

the presence of water represents an opportunity for life.... as we know it. Our concept of life and how it's created. the building blocks as we understand them.
At some point in time in the future we will find life which is rock based or otherwise totally alien to our concept of what should be living.

[timtremblay]

Seems to me if that moon's temperature is 120 below zero or colder it doesn't matter if there is water on it.

HAVE NOT WATCHED THIS YET BUT THE TITLE... IS IT EUROPA?!?!?!?!

[jasonparmele]

Instead of exploring space should be making stuff to explore our ocean figure out one planet before checking out the next
