I wonder what the math would show if someone were to covert all of the oil and gas we have ever used to its caloric equivalent and then figured out how much dinosaur meat that equals. It seem impossible to me that enough of this meat found its way into collections miles deep to be converted into hydrocarbons by a (to me at least) murky process that somehow left no hint of bone or tooth in the mess that has produced billions of barrels of oil and cubic feel of gas.
Titan is primarily composed of water ice and rocky material. Much as with Venus prior to the Space Age, the dense, opaque atmosphere prevented understanding of Titan's surface until new information accumulated with the arrival of the CassiniHuygens mission in 2004, including the discovery of liquid hydrocarbon lakes in the satellite's polar regions. The surface is geologically young; although mountains and several possible cryovolcanoes have been discovered, it is smooth and few impact craters have been found.
Not a problem,...just add a few more billion years to the age of the earth and they can justify anything. Just ask Al Gore.
I believe that eventually we will discover that life on Earth originated in the crust (or deeper) and then migrated to the oceans. We will also find that every rocky planet in the Solar system, along with some of the moons, are generating life in their interiors.
I asked a geologist at college once how all that plant and animal matter got buried so quickly. He said he didn’t know. I then asked if “global warming” is caused by burning oil, and “adding” carbon to the atmosphere, why is that viewed as bad? I mean the carbon had to COME from the atmosphere if the biotic theory of oil is correct.
Made him quite mad as I recall.
