Beneath Earth’s seafloor, contact between iron in rocks and hydrothermal water produces hydrogen through chemical reactions. Some organisms gain energy using this hydrogen as “food.”
Hydrogen may be produced through similar processes on Europa’s seafloor, and similar organisms might exist there.

地球の海底下では、岩石に含まれる鉄と熱水が触れ合うと、化学反応で水素が生じます。その水素を“食糧”としてエネルギーを得ている生物がいます。
エウロパの海底でも同様の過程で水素が生じている可能性があり、似たような生物が存在するかもしれません。
