Re: Life IN space

all it requires is low radiation and good insulation

as long as life can pass food through that protection (food being any compounds with chemical potential, very hard to find in the void), perhaps such animals would be the UV absorbers i'm seeking but they'd still require a solvent for a chemical metabolism.

or they could be ultra massive star eaters... unicron.. which isn't unlikely just if you can devour a star you you must be able to metabolize and store that power.. which will then be used to move on to the next one [star] which requires incredible amounts of power too. perhaps cooling the stars gases and liquid metals into usable forms.. but such a creature.. very unlikely..

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.

Share the love!
