Little green fishies?

Jupiter's moon Europa- one of four easily visible from Earth through a decent set of binoculars- has long been believed to have a global ocean beneath its icy surface, providing the solar system's most likely site of extraterrestrial life.

Now, scientists have found evidence of a great, salty lake trapped in the ice above the ocean, providing an even more likely habitat for Jovian fish and other aquatic life. In fact, there may be several of the shallow lakes below the Europan ice.

Maybe we'll get it back together, re-institute a real man-in-space program, and go fishing some day.
