I personally don't have any doubt that we'll find other primitive life in our solar system once we can dig deep enough under the surface of mars and break through the ice of the oceans of our solar system.

I wonder if all the good fishing spots are already taken.

Does anyone else miss the days when announcements weren't leaked beforehand?

Maybe there's a fishing spot on Enceladus. I bet the view would be magnificent - looking at Saturn and it's rings

Having done my fair share of ice fishing I can confidently state that I don't want to drill that hole.

I'm glad that a very close flyby of Enceladus will occur before the Cassini Grand Finale.
