Jill Schenck on 07 Mar 14"Europa is an icy world slightly smaller than Earth's moon. It is unique in the solar system, being thought to have a global ocean of water in contact with a rocky seafloor. If the ocean is proven to exist, Europa could be a promising place to look for life beyond Earth." It's not Europe, it's Europa. Europa is one of the 63 discovered moons of Jupiter, which may be able to sustain life if it is carefully colonized. There is thought to be twice the amount of water on Europa than on Earth, and signs of energy are making scientists want to learn more and more about the somewhat distant moon.
