The grand prize included a CA$250,000 cash payout, "gas for life" from Petro-Canada, the opportunity to fly for a year anywhere Air Canada flies worldwide, and two Chevrolet Colorado "Z71" Trucks. [1] This season visited six provinces and three additional countries and travelled over 48,500 kilometres (30,100 mi) during twelve legs.
False-color Cassini radar mosaic of Titan's north polar region; the blue areas are lakes of liquid hydrocarbons. "The existence of lakes of liquid hydrocarbons on Titan opens up the possibility for solvents and energy sources that are alternatives to those in our biosphere and that might support novel life forms altogether different from those on Earth."—NASA Astrobiology Roadmap 2008 [1]
Liquid water is thought by most astrobiologists to be an essential prerequisite for extraterrestrial life. There is growing evidence of subsurface liquid water on several moons in the Solar System orbiting the gas giants Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. However, none of these subsurface bodies of water has been confirmed to date.
With the advent of AI, natural gas could become a destination fuel rather than a temporary stopgap. ... AI could be giving natural gas a second lease on life. Richard Lum. October 3, 2024 at 5:20 AM.
Natural gas prices have surged nearly 25% over the last month. Energy experts attribute the rise to cold weather expected in January and geopolitical issues around the globe. The cold temperatures ...
[4] [5] Plate tectonics are needed for life over a long time span, and carbon-based life is important in the plate tectonics process. [6] Iron- and sulfur-based Anoxygenic photosynthesis life forms that lived from 3.80 to 3.85 billion years ago on Earth produced an abundance of black shale deposits. These shale deposits increase heat flow and ...
If methane is detected (by using a spectrometer for example) this may indicate that life is, or recently was, present. This was debated [ 25 ] when methane was discovered in the Martian atmosphere by M.J. Mumma of NASA's Goddard Flight Center, and verified by the Mars Express Orbiter (2004) [ 26 ] and in Titan 's atmosphere by the Huygens probe ...
Natural gas burning on a gas stove Burning of natural gas coming out of the ground. Natural gas (also called fossil gas, methane gas, or simply gas) is a naturally occurring mixture of gaseous hydrocarbons consisting primarily of methane (95%) [1] in addition to various smaller amounts of other higher alkanes.
