In Arthur C. Clarke's 2010, the Monolith ignites Jupiter into a small sun, in order to melt the ice on the moon Europa and thus accelerate the evolution of a sentient life form found in the oceans there.

And that'll be all over 'Art Bell' radio talk show at 3am. The really big question is, will the Jovians retaliate?
We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
