It wrinkles my brain that Jupiter’s moon Europa has oceans that are sixty miles deep, while Earth’s oceans only reach seven miles deep at most. I’m willing to bet good money that there’s life in Europa’s oceans. Like five bucks. You hear me, NASA? I bet you five bucks that there’s life on Europa… Now that there’s money and reputation on the line, I bet they send a mission there real quick.
I have no idea when this was originally posted, but NASA is working on their Europa mission RIGHT NOW to look for alien life! But get this, they theorize that because of the depth, gravity, and composition of the oceans, any organisms that lived there would be waaay bigger than aquatic life on Earth. So far everything’s going well with regards to their Europa mission so they should have a spacecraft on its way to look for giant sea monsters in space in only a few years. (The planned date is in the early 2020s.)
Looks like my negotiations worked. You’re welcome, humanity.
I’ve never been gripped with such cold terror and pure delight in my LIFE
explaining to an 18th century sailor that we’re looking for sea monsters in space.
Please let there be sea monsters in space Please let there be sea monsters in space Please let there be sea monsters in space Please let there be sea monsters in space Please let there be sea monsters in space Please let there be sea monsters in space
tragedy enjoyers are like if i’m not having the worst time of my life and leaving this story with something stuck deep inside me where it eats me alive from the inside out then that’s just not good enough. i need to consume media that consumes me in return like how the ouroboros eats its own tail out to satisfy its hunger or the animal in a trap gnaws off its own leg to escape. or maybe that’s just me.
the generational range of star trek is so nuts to me like you have peepaw talking about how captain kirk was his childhood hero back when televisions had a foot long diameter and then you have teens on tumblr making powerpoint presentations about why spock was the patient zero for catboys
Discovering the Death Egg embedded in the cave of Lava Reef Zone is another one of those fantastic examples of visual storytelling that S3&K does so well.
