    As part of the SETI Institute’s astrobiology proposal, Dr. Christopher Chyba and I will be investigating potential environments for life on Europa. Our investigation will have two components. First, we will study the dataset of Galileo images of Europa’s surface, as taken over a five and a half-year period, to search for any changes that could be due to geological activity. Second, we will study various models of geological activity on Europa to determine their implications for the formation of transport of biologically useful material from the surface to the ocean, or vice versa.
