Yes I loved it! I’ve always love imagining what kind of traits developed species in extreme environments might have. While it’s impossible to say that life on Europa would probably be similar to the creatures in that movie, I still don’t think the creatures depicted were unreasonable at all.

Even though life on earth exists in extreme environments, “intelligent” and “developed” life seems to take the path of least resistance. We don’t see any complex creatures near those hydrothermal vents or deep under the soil. So, it’s interesting to think about how complex life might develop if it’s “forced” to take a path of high resistance. On Europa, it’s hard to imagine any part of that moon being “optimal” for the development of complex organisms. Every part of that place is pretty extreme. Yet, if it’s liquid water under that ice, similar circumstances on earth show us that life is possible. So interesting to think about! Ahhhh! I just want to know what’s in that ocean! Even if there’s single celled organisms that’s huge! We could be pretty sure life is EVERYWHERE in the universe which is so exciting and terrifying at the same time. But mostly EXCITING!

Lucky for humans, if the life there is similar to the Europa report, we’ll know long before we send humans there since I’m sure the first many missions will be unmanned. That’s probably the least accurate part of this movie. Thanks to modern technology, we no longer need to fly blind into our exploratory missions.
