    If the oil runs out

    We can all go and live on Titan.

    SPACE.com -- Titan Has More Oil Than Earth

    Very interesting ...does add credence to the argument that oil has a geological origin, and that the "nutters" who suggest that oil wells fill up if you leave them for a while, might have a point. Also might go some way to answering the question of where life came from.
    I'm alright Jack

    So who gets exploration rights and more important, who will build the pipeline to move it from there to here.

    Maybe the teleporter has a good business case after all.

        By the time we've invented the teleporter, global warming will mean it'll be raining hydrocarbons on earth too.
        Will work inside IR35. Or for food.

          Does it? I thought it was pretty well accepted that the oil on earth is originated from biomass? Not sure how the discovery there is liquid methane on Titan changes that.

            "SPACE.com -- Titan Has More Oil Than Earth"

            There is no reference to oil in that article other than in the title. It may as well have been "Titan has more plastic than Earth" or "Titan has more sugar than Earth", and been no less wrong.
