As are my polar regions this time of year. I mean, the place where I live :)

As a matter of fact, there was. Came in handy when I accidentally 
drifted away from our ship during an orbital EVA. Don't ask me why I had 
a beer with out there with me :)

I think you may have cause and effect mixed up there.

Yeah, I think you're right. Get a few beers in me and what do I do? Go 
out and see how the ale sparkles by Jupiter's light. I think the guys 
were secretly planning it all along, to watch me blast off in horror...

It wasn't hard to get into this image... not with the temperatures 
getting lower here at home. Thanks for the comments Thomas :)

Yeah, the recent ECROSS mission impacted on Europa to detect
residual traces of beer. Unfortunately, it was concluded you need
to process three tons of surface material to extract one pint.

It's really more of a water world. Once we get there the market
for overpriced Himalaya water will get seriously stirred up.

Nice image BTW! In any way related to the current IRTC topic? ;)

I'll keep it in mind, should I visit that moon again. But wait, wouldn't 
I run the risk of being enveloped by sublimated ice?

I heard about this. It was a gross misuse of government funds, wasn't 
it? Something like 2 billion just to get a guy buzzed.

No, it started when I saw jhu's post about his trip to Europe. I haven't 
even looked at the IRTC for quite some time, I had better do that :P

Don't - or we can call the round closed now already with a definite

Well, since I'm not there in person to see your body language, I'll have 
to take your word for it ;P

It's certainly more impressive when you think it is itself a pun 
inspired by an earlier thread. :)

Impressive! I wished I had this as a wide-screen hi-resolution graphic like 
this on my PC as screen background...

It is a good scene: it even makes me feeling, somehow, like I would be 
there...
