Cryobots Can "UnEarth" Aliens on Europa? NASA's roadmap for exploring icy moons includes deploying 'cryobots' to penetrate the thick ice of moons like Jupiter's Europa and Saturn's Enceladus. These robotic probes will use thermal drilling to reach subsurface oceans, potentially harboring life. The plan, formulated at a 2023 workshop, focuses on power, thermal control, mobility, and communication for the cryobots. With a design inspired by Earth's thermal drilling techniques but adapted for harsher, alien environments, these cryobots could revolutionize our search for extraterrestrial life within our solar system.
