Apparently, based upon the latest news, it appears that there is a saltwater sea under the crust of Enceladus, which is one of Saturn's moons.

They have detected geysers on the surface, spewing water vapor into space.

So, when your troops need saltwater for the desalination plants in the far reaches of the solar system (after they tire of the flat-tasting recycled water), or have a hankering for fresh seafood, just send them to the moons of Saturn.

See here for more info:

Of course, the lobsters there are rather large, fast-moving, carnivorous, and love the taste of humans.

you DON'T want to mess with LOBSTERS from SPACE!!!

example:

In Teenagers from outer space…the 'Gorgon' were air-breathing space lobsters that grew well EATING humans

And during the THIRD season of the ORIGINAL 'Saturday Night Live'…they invaded the show and killed John Bellushi in his 'Bee suit' as the band was playing, 'Nearer my God to Thee' as they attacked the NBC studios….(there was also the bit about the 'Land Shark' and Larry the Lobster and Walter Mattau and 'buzzing off' at Bee Camp…but THAT's another story….)

Bottom line….you don't want to mess with interplanetary seafood! We're gonna be in enough trouble with the Brine Shrimp from Pluto for downgrading their 'Planet' to a 'Dwarf Planet' as it is!!!

(I wouldn't want to be one of those chaps at the next IAU/International Astronomical Union's next meeting in 2012 when all the little saucers start dis-integrating them at their 'awards dinner'….)

Slishfully,
Sgt DWW-bartentacle from/for? the 'stars'

'Space Sushi':another term for humans in outter solar system!

Nah, you just need bigger butter sticks, and it's all good.

You win the war, and can go right into the victory feasting.

Lobsters from Space…..suddenly I cannot help but here Bowie music.

Why is it that I'm getting that episode of Cowboy Bebop where Spike ended up Spacing the old fridge coming to mind… actually the Anime Music Video version, set to Weird Al's "Living in the Fridge"!

Can you hear a lobster scream in space as it boils inside its shell?

Just one of those questions that shall forever remain unanswered! ;-)
