Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community
1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.
2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.
3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.
4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.
5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.
6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

Damn. If there was a planet that rained oil, I'm sure the US would have taken it over by now.
Not a planet, but titan has hydrocarbons.
Give it some time and maybe space fracking will be profitable enough to make Titan worth going after. Set up a couple liquifying stations in orbit and ship it back home.
As a wise engineer once said, you can solve those problems with gun. And if that doesn't solve it, just use more gun.

Needs too much setup
The whole point of the oil is that a lot of it is all hydrocarboned together into these long chains and loops that bust open real energetically. It's big and energy dense so it's hard to produce naturally without a lot of existing chemical energy to store and pack together and then condense over geologic time. I don't think it's gonna come together for you in the clouds whatever you do to your atmosphere.
Titan has lakes of liquid hydrocarbons though. Simple stuff like ethane and propane. If we could get the propane cars going mainstream, we could try to talk them into going out there and scooping it up for them; I think there's a fuck of a lot of it.
I think I'd prefer leaving Titan's hydrocarbons on Titan, considering Earth's relationship with them so far.
Burning tons of hydrocarbons in our atmoshpere so we can leave our atmosphere, go to another planet, collect more hydrocarbons,, then bring them back to earth and burn them again, all while we could be harnessing the sun, wind, and water as energy. If thats gonna be our attitude maybe we deserve to boil alive in our warming climate.
You could bring them to Mars and burn them there. Thicken up the atmosphere a bit, maybe add some water.
