NASA plans to spend $100,000 to study the use of a squid rover that could someday explore Jupiter's moon Europa and other worlds believed to harbor lakes and oceans.NASA is currently moving ahead with plans to send a spacecraft to Europa, but sending a squid submarine hasn't been a public part of that plan. The funding is part of NASA's Innovative Advanced Concepts program, which aims to turn science fiction into science fact through the development of pioneering technologies. In the case of the soft rover, that aim is certainly true.
