According to a recent YouTube video posted by Secureteam10, Saturn’s moon Titan may have 100 times a number of oil deposits as we have on Earth. Perhaps this will mark the beginning of a new space race. NASA will have to speed up their new propulsion system if they want to beat any aliens to harness the oil of Titan.
UNLOCKING THE SECRETS OF SATURN’S MOON
Although Secureteam10 released this video just the other day, NASA has known about these oil reserves on Saturn’s moon for quite some time. In support of the video claim, NASA has stated that Titan has hundreds of times more liquid hydrocarbons than all the oil and natural gas on Earth. Their Cassini spacecraft delivered the data that shows hydrocarbons literally falling from the sky and collecting in vast deposits to form lakes and dunes. Essentially, this moon is raining gold. Will, we see aliens running a Shell gas station on Titan someday?
OIL SEEKING ALIENS WILL MEET SOME CHALLENGES
Ambitious entrepreneur aliens going to Saturn’s moon for oil will surely find plenty of the substance. What they won’t find, however, is water. Sitting at a warm 179 degrees Celsius, Titan isn’t exactly a comfortable place. Yes, there will be plenty of oil on the moon, but that’s pretty much it. In the place of water will be methane and ethane. Those looking to take a swim in one of Titan’s many lakes will be met with dark dunes of oily sludge. Some of these lakes are more than 10 meters or so deep, even appearing pitch-black on radar. It’s no question that the valuable substance is aplenty on Titan. Surely, the powers that be on Earth would love to obtain it.
LONG WAY AWAY FROM SATURN
Unless NASA is hiding some secret Saturn operation from the public, it doesn’t look like we will making a trip out there anytime soon. For now, the Cassini spacecraft is our closest link to the gaseous planet. While it’s data collection abilities are nothing short of impressive, don’t expect it to bring back lakes full of oil. For the time being it doesn’t seem that Saturn or its’s oil is going anywhere. Even if aliens were out there, it looks like Titan has plenty of resources to spare. Let’s just hope they’re the sharing kind of aliens and not the Mars Attacks! kind.
