- We have yet to find evidence of life outside of Earth, but it may still be hiding within our own solar system.
- Scientists say that the ingredients for life may exist on some of the moons in our system, including the icy worlds that orbit Uranus.
- If alien life does exist there, it is likely living deep beneath the surface in underground water reserves that at kept in liquid state thanks to tidal forces.
Finding extraterrestrial life within our own solar system would truly be an incredible thing. Unfortunately, we're no closer to confirming that life exists outside of Earth now than we were decades or even centuries ago. Still, the potential exists, and scientists have started to dream about the possibility of aquatic life taking root within some of the icy moons in our system.
The frosty worlds surrounding planets like Jupiter and Saturn may indeed host life. We know there's liquid water beneath the surface of some of them — it spews out into space on a regular basis — but we've yet to venture to those worlds to get a better look. Now, scientists say that the huge balls of ice around Uranus may also be a potential bastion for life.
