Re: you don't start with floaters

Pressure is not the issue.
The chemistry of temperature is. Jupiter is HOT down deep where the downdrafts go. Chemical bonds cannot survive. The problem is that the fly time of life precursors is in the order of days before being downdrafted. Very unlikely, albeit impossible in my view for life to get started.
