  • Industries of Titan is a game about cheerfully embracing a destructive & unsustainable scavenging operation on a polluted nightmare world. But the buildings are pretty, so that's good.

Ive always heard that titan is interesting because its very rich in organic compounds and could easily be a planet capable of supporting methane related chemistries. the moons with confirmed subsurface oceans are Enceladus and Europa. their oceans have been confirmed because they have shifting ice plates on the surface indicating that the moon is not frozen to the core. theyve even found organic compounds in the geyser plumes of enceladus.

  • @maarchalk2840
    @maarchalk2840 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    If I remember correctly the sky of titan is made of methane. Meaning the roles of fuel and oxygen would be reversed. You could be able to find 'fuel' just in the sky and would always have to carry around tanks of oxygen.
    The burned methane could be useful to because burned methane turns into water and CO2. So you can grow trees! Meaning this 'grim future' could have started out great with good terraforming efforts and stuff. But they failed to keep the oxygen and methane seperate or something (and I don't need to tell you what problems that could cause)
    This is of course a simple theory of mine. I should mention I don't have any kind of degree in science because I'm to unmotivated to watch anything else than cheap quick science video's by various youtubers.
