This is fun .....

Well, for starters, methane has a melting point of about minus 295 degrees F and a boiling point of about minus 258 degrees F. Ethane is down there also.

The average surface temperature of Titan is roughly minus 292 degrees F.

Now Earth has a average surface temperature of about plus 57 degrees F.

So, if a cow farted on Titan, the methane would hit the ground as a liquid (or solid).

If a methane/ethane lake were on Earth ...... the area around it would smell like cow farts.

You see where this is going .......


What the hell WAS this thread about ??.........
