you need a biosphere that won't shred amino acids and shred simple lifeforms with horrible radiation, cook them with heat, or destroy them with weird chemical reactions, and I dunno tidally locked planets don't seem to fit that bill.

i think if we found a mirror planet in the solar system habitable zone it would be a small chance, i think finding it at all in our system is unlikely as hell. i put no stock in anyone who has hope for life under europa or anywhere else. but i don't know and i won't be upset or anything at being proven wrong it would be cool.

Parallax Scroll posted:i agree that it's unlikely, but europa's nearby enough that we may as well look If we can look with remote instruments, i agree. I don't think we should send a probe under the ice, if we can drill thru it anyway. If there's life, who knows what delicate state it would be in. Early life on Earth was just blankets of bacteria. shitloads of bacteria. so much bacteria some of it has fossilized and it just looks like funny looking rocks. if a probe crashes into something like that who knows what kind of die-off would be triggered. I hate the idea of disturbing an ecosystem too. but it's hard to reconcile that with the fact we're likely to find nothing, so why be that cautious? I dunno.

Declare your ideological affiliations here. Base game factions only. Expansion factions will be ignored. +1 Human Hive.

Alien crossfire is good but the factions are not.
