Okay, not "Aliens", but bacteria's. Do you think it exist? Scientist, found evidence bacteria under miles of thick ice in Antertica, and scientist say there might be bacteria in Europa, you agree? why or why not? whats your opinion?

That whole thing is ICE!

I think there could be. No reason why bacteria could not exist under the ice. Scientists believe that under Europa's sheets of ice, there is liquid water. This liquid water could have bacteria living in it.

Europa is our solar systems best chance of life (next to Earth of course). The whole moon is not ice but it is thought to be a liquid ocean underneath a several mile thick ice sheet.
Hydrothermal vents, underwater Volcano's, or other Geological conditions are likely to exist at deep ocean levels that can provide heat, and ideal living conditions, for life (probably biotic) on Europa.

It is a possibility. Obviously it doesn't have humans but I think bacteria could be there. That would be interesting if we did find bacteria or animals on there.

The Drake Equation says no, but its possible that life does exist somewhere.
The Drake equation states that:
N = R^{*} ~ \times ~ f_{p} ~ \times ~ n_{e} ~ \times ~ f_{l} ~ \times ~ f_{i} ~ \times ~ f_{c} ~ \times ~ L
