From Ben Bova's Jovian Travelogue,
|Huge balloonlike creatures called Clarke's Medusas drift in the hurricane-like winds surging across the planet. Birds that have never seen land, living out their entire lives aloft. Gossamer spider-kites that trap microscopic spores. Particles of long-chain carbon molecules that form in the clouds and sift downward, toward the global ocean below.|
(Sometimes, if you're patient, Earthling spaceships can be seen flying by!)
The struggle against ignorance is to the end of time. But it is said that if you die in tard, you will be reborn in Tardhalla.
