Alien Fermentation on Saturn’s Moon? Tiny Microbes May Lurk in Titan’s Deep, Icy Ocean

Titan may seem like a prime candidate for alien life with its organic-rich surface and deep subsurface ocean, but new research suggests any life there would be extremely limited. Scientists modeled how microbes might survive on Titan using fermentation, a basic metabolic process that doesn’t require oxygen. Despite Titan’s vast organics, only a tiny fraction […] Read More
