What life might be like in alien oceans.
Recent discoveries have led astrobiologists to think that moons are the most promising places for alien
life to exist in our Solar System. And now several major space missions are being planned over the next
decade to search for hints of life there.
Unlike our neighbouring planets, some of the moons have plenty of liquid water. Jupiter’s moon, Europa,
for example, is thought to contain more liquid water than all of Earth's oceans combined. This water –
and any life in it – is protected from space radiation and asteroid impacts by a thick layer of kilometersdeep surface ice.
The discovery of plumes of water shooting up from Saturn’s moon Enceladus and Europa have suggested
they could have warm interiors that can support liquid oceans, heated not by the Sun, but by an internal
dynamo powered by radioactive decay in their cores or by tidal heating generated by the gravitational
attraction of the planets that they orbit.
There is now evidence for water oceans on several moons, including Europa, Enceladus, Callisto and
Ganymede. One study published this June estimates that the Enceladus ocean is around one billion years
old. Others have suggested it may be billions of years old – plenty of time for life to evolve.

The word cores in “radioactive decay in their cores” can be replaced by:

Use the following text to answer the question.
TEXT
Summertime is the time of year for the
sandwich. But just how did this famous
food get started? Its history only traces
back a few hundred years!
It was in 1762, and strangely enough, it
involved gambling. The Earl of Sandwich,
John Montagu, was playing cards with his
friends and was hungry - but didn't want to
stop playing. So he asked for his normal
meat and cheese to be brought stuck in bread so that he could eat with one hand
while playing with the other.
His companions thought this was a brilliant
idea, being solid gamblers themselves, and
immediately began ordering their meals
"Sandwich Style". A new craze was begun!
The sandwich hit the US in 1827, when
Elizabeth Leslie published her cookbook
that included a ham sandwich. lt was
immediately popular with the population of
the states, giving a practical, portable meal
for workers and schoolchildren.
By the 1900s, bakeries started selling presliced bread, so that sandwiches were easy
to create. Until that time, consumers would
buy solid loaves - or bake their own bread
at home. Bread portions were often just
torn off the loaf in random shapes. Now,
with perfectly sliced pieces of bread, the
sandwich had come into its glory.
What is the translation of the phrase "by
the 1900s"?
