Scientists believe the Jovian moon has oceans, up to 100 miles deep, beneath its icy crust. Water? Yes. Enough oxygen to support "tons of fishlike creatures"? Yes. Fascinating? Totally.

About Me
- pound360
- I started pound360 to channel my obsession with vitamins, running and the five senses. Eventually, I got bored focusing on all that stuff, so I came back from a one month hiatus in May of 2007 (one year after launching Pound360) and broadened my mumblings here to include all science.
