   Exploring Europa

   I keep reading that there designs being made for rovers being sent to   
   Europa.  Why do you need to have an ice melting lander?  Couldn't you impact   
   a large object into Europa and hope it breaks through the ice layer?   
   Another option could be detonating hydrogen bombs on one specific area to   
   melt through the ice.  After that was accomplished we could send down from   
   the orbiter, the ocean explorer rover.   
      
   Thanks,   
   Kelly
