err.. quite.
Anyway, I think It'd be fairly costly, but worthwhile and possible to send a probe to Europa. The probe could cut a hole in the ice, and then travel inside the (possible) water and take pictures. And.. I've known the sun would eventually engulf the Earth eventually, and it's sad, isn't it?

Right, but I was talking more along the lines of... 1. Human far-space travel. 2. Faster travel in space. |
We haven't reached Mars yet. I agree with you, it will take a while to adapt to sub-zero temperature and no food at all.

Possible ways of travelling:
SOme Scientists are building a prototype Plasma engine (extreme superheat) designed for space travel.
AS for time:
I remember back on reboot that the people in a system, outside the games, age slower that if they travelled by games, like AndrAIa and Matrix did, and tehy became older.

Indeed, there is life on Europa. Once a space shuttle goes there, they might be able to drill to get to the bottom. But the life found there will most likely not be that evolved (if there is life). Most likely there will be very small monaran-like bacteria, or cyano-like bacteria...mostly prokaryotic.
It is unlikely that anything larger than the most simplistic of life would be there under the current conditions. HOWEVER, if it the oceans are warmer than scientists believe, there could indeed be eukaryotic organisms, and perhaps even multicellular algae, or even small animals! This, however would be a major stretch, and if it were so, would surely be the find of the century.

When I said not intellegent I meant to "pertain" to our galaxy. Sorry for the confusion. Out of other galaxies there could be WAY more advanced species. What if each galaxy is almost the same as ours and they have more advanced and lesser advanced human species and they could be different stages of time. It could be year 6078 on Earthia (I just made this up) in the "Snickers" Galaxy. Possibility?

I know this is all kinda old and dusty, but I wanted to throw in my two-pence...
One can have a difficult time believing in "ghosts" (I just call them spirits) -- especially, if the individual more left-brained. The cheesy name doesn't help. The word "ghost" brings up images of ignorance and antiquated thinking in most people's heads. More importantly, popular science doesn't really foster ideas outside of a certain realm or boundary; which is the "tangible." The fact of the matter is; anyone who has ever felt what I have felt would never question the presence of non-physical beings again. Even calling said beings "non-physical" would be inaccurate. Paranormal researchers have actually dectected changes in environment when a so-called "ghost" is believed to be present. I take this subject enormously seriously.
That said, if anyone ever wants to get this forum going again; I'm in! *lol*
