Which of jupiters moons surface features provide evidence of a subsurface liquid ocean?
Europa...
What is the significance of Europa's suspected subsurface ocean being covered by an icy shell and covering the satellite's rocky mantle?
The liquid water beneath Europa's surface might be capable of supporting life.
What moon is considered likely to have a deep subsurface ocean of liquid water?
Europa
Scientist think Europa might have?
A subsurface ocean, an oxygen atmosphere and potential for life.
Winners of the Europa league get automatic qualification into the champions league the following season?
No, they go into the group stage of the following season's Europa League.
Does Ganymede have water?
It might be tidaly heated like io and europa some scientests belive ganymede is tidally heated so it may have a subsurface ocean
Why do scientist think that Europa may have the conditions to support life?
The tectonic plate-like movement of its icy surface and various measurements indicate that Europa has a subsurface ocean of liquid water. Liquid water is considered the most important factor for a world's ability to have life.
Does jupiters moon europa have water?
Yes, it's known that there is water on Europa. The real question is what temperature it is. The surface temperature is below freezing, but subsurface temperatures could be (and in fact almost certainly are) substantially warmer.
What evidence supports that idea that life could have evolved on europa?
They think that life might exist on Europa because they have found evidence of liquid water on Europa. Hope this helps. :) <3
What evidence suppor that there is live on europa?
Because there is ice and water where living things can live off
Which Jovian moon has life?
No object other than Earth is known to have life. Europa, one of the moons of Jupiter, appears to have liquid water beneath its surface. Scientists speculate that this subsurface ocean might have life.
Does Europa have an underground ocean?
Current science suggests that there is a liquid water ocean underneath the icy crust of Europa. An ocean was initially postulated after Voyager imaging of Europa revealed a young surface that has undergone recent resurfacing. Galileo magnetometer and imaging results have supported the existence of a subsurface ocean. Europa's fiery neighbor, Io, has volcanism driven by tidal forces, creating by the pushing and pulling of the moons elliptical orbits by massive Jupiter. Similar forces acting farther out on Europa are presumed to be creating the cracks and disruptions on the surface, and maintaining the ocean beneath. Plans are being reviewed by NASA for future missions to specifically study Europa and possibly even land on its surface.
