One paper detailed that hydrogen gas was flowing throughout the atmosphere and disappeared at the surface. The second paper showed that the lack of chemicals on the surface could have only been consumed by alien life. It's believed that in the next four billion years, when the Sun turns into a red giant, "it could be paradise on Titan."

Wonderful news, can't believe OCN missed out on it. It's not that old, just the beginning of this month. Go Cassini! Titan is a very very interesting moon because it actually has a functioning ecosystem with weather cycles and all much like we have here on earth. Atmosphere, mountains, lakes, seas, rivers, rain. It's just not water. It's methane.

Time to pick-up a nice telescope.

Hydrogen consumption = Aliens

Life can't just be limited to sun, water and oxygen. In this entire universe there has to be more ways to sustain "living" organisms.

While an old picture, it's the first real imagery of Titan's surface.

A little more detailed info on recently discovered data about Titan.

Basically, Titan is stuuuuuffed with organic chemicals, dormant by the cold, waiting to be kickstarted into life by warmth.

Repost, and they haven't actually found life. They have noticed a process that COULD potentially be explained by a biological process, but could also be explained by a chemical or other process.

I admit I don't have time to read the article... but repost?

Bah. Can't remember having seen it on OCN and a quick search didn't turn up anything. That Google searcher spews up everything one's NOT looking for lol.

Edit: Yes, Duckie it's a repost. You actually link the source straight from the horse's mouth. Thanks

yea thats a repost too of something astronomers have known for some while

Damn the truth is out. Code Black

This is definitely very exciting news indeed. If we do actually find life on Titan, it will be much easier to study it than some far away planet (I know titan is very far away, but its fairly close to us compared to other planets/moons out there).

I should break out a heat lamp or just my gaming rig. should give them a boost.

 

[MagicBox]

Alright alright I'll throw in a funny

OnLive should get it's datacentres built there. It's a win-win! I mean, they can finally use batteries of GTX480's and stimulate life for the NASA guys at the same time!

Where are the UFO guys? Are they slacking off?

Maybe the reason they haven't shown up is because this has nothing to do with UFO's or intelligent aliens. Go read the article you might actually learn something.

This is true. First it was Mars, now it's Saturn.

 

[NoseKi||s]

So maybe sometime people could live on Titan if it gets a bit warmer. But first we'd have to get rid of the titans that live there.. Trust me. I've seen the movie and it's no place for humans.

The best way to find advanced alien life forms is to fly a satellite around and wait for it to get shot down.
