In the Stars: Is there life on Titan?

By Phil Berardelli
UNITED PRESS INTERNATIONAL

Washington, DC, Apr. 28 (UPI) -- The giant moon Titan orbits Saturn
some 800 million miles away from the sun. It is so cold -- hundreds of
degrees below zero, both Fahrenheit and Celsius -- it might harbor dark
seas of liquid methane, which also produces rain in the dense
atmosphere. Water ice forms, not in massive blocks as it does on Earth,
but as fine particles, perhaps acting on Titan's shores the way sand
does on terrestrial beaches.

Still, the intriguing thought remains: Did Huygens casually capture and
transmit the first photograph of an alien artifact?

Unlikely, but not impossible.

In the Stars is a series examining new discoveries about the cosmos, by

Unless there is salt on Titan forget about ever finding any life
forms there. Just ask our Cosmic diva Darla if even her evolved from the
salty sea dolphin race can live without trace salt. Sorry, don't deduce
so, try your luck again, after you have studied my profound Nobel Award
scientific winning category class nightbat 1st life candidate, the Red
Halo specimen. Look if the whole purported galaxy now wants to meet the
nightbat per reported advanced net Darla Star Race, isn't that good
enough for you?

You are giving a human perspective on life based on biology known to
human science. Any life on Titan IF their is any there, would
probably be based on a totally differnt set of rules. You could say
like in Star Trek It may be life but not as we know it. ;-0
