In the introduction to "A meeting with Medusa", it was mentioned that this is a prequel for 2010: A Space Odyssey. If so why was the life on Jupiter is not mentioned in 2010? Also if there is a intelligent life on Jupiter then why was it destroyed by the higher intelligent people(who made Jupiter into a star)?

Hari Hara Agree with Felix, this formed the basis for Kubrick to write the screenplay of Space odyssey.
