Life on Titan?

Strange Discovery on Titan Leads to Speculation of Alien Life - Yahoo! News

Lets just say I am skeptical.

One study suggested that hydrogen was flowing down through Titan's atmosphere and disappearing at the surface. Astrobiologist Chris McKay at NASA Ames Research Center speculated this could be a tantalizing hint that hydrogen is getting consumed by life.

A "suggestion" that made someone "speculate" about a "tantilizing hint."



Why don't they just admit that Nazis fleeing Berlin are hiding on Titan where their offspring are building a Fleet of Hindendburg Class Dirigibles in which to invade the Earth and Establish the Forth Reich.

WalMart has a supercenter on Titan I think?
Or was that a Starbucks kiosk?

Shuuu, keep it under wraps, we don't need to panic the rest of Earth.

Yeah, I guess they could do something like arm the populace with slingshots.

Nah...they'll never figure that out.

We'll gain control while they argue about the Earth's Defense at the U.N.

Naah. The commute would be too long.

The loss of hydrogen isn't so massive in my opinion, but the presence of an unknown organic compound is very interesting.

Why?

Just because we cannot identify an organic compound on a moon 887 million miles away?

While the life we may find on Mars will probably similiar to that on Earth, developing in a similiar early environment, what we would find on Titan would very definately be life not as we know it. Hope that they get some more definitive information in my lifetime.

Ya like some information that ACTUALLY might lead one to believe life might exist would be nice.

Unless it looks like Carmen Electra, who cares?

Once again, the Space Program shows that the lakes of liquid methane in an environment totally inhospitable to organic life makes a mockery of the very idea of "Fossil Fuels"

 

[Old Rocks]

On Mars, we definately have that information. On Titan, some tantalizing hints. Should we find that life has evolved independently on either or both, then we can be certain that abiogenisis will have occured in many places in our universe.
