As far as they know the conditions for life are close enough topossibly have started life.

This is just a possibility based on what is known about the particular satelites.

Some day we will know but not at this time.

By satellites they mean the moons, if you didnt know that. But the moons of Jupiter appearently show the beginning of possibly sustaining life. There are chemical reactions much like the Earth had in its beginnings. Eventually this will make an atmosphere, and, unfortuneatly, it might take millions of years but one of them may one day herald the primordial ooze that began life here.

I hope we're speaking of the same astro-physical satellites and not the electronic junk that orbits around planets?! Well...Unlike jupiter, the temperature and chemical composition of the atmosphere around the satellites is similar to what could have been around Earth during it's formative years. So there's a high probability of finding life there.

Some of the moons of Jupiter are said to have ice on their surface and possibly water underneath .You would do well to consult a newer book on the subject or perhaps N.A.S.A's site.
