Titan is the only other celestial body in the solar system known to have stable liquid on its surface.

Huge explosions may have formed lakes on Saturn's moon Titan

Blowed Up

Scientists are suggesting that the methane-filled lakes on the surface of Saturn's largest moon Titan could have been formed by massive explosions.

Huge Explosions May Have Formed Lakes on Saturn’s Moon Titan

Pockets of warming nitrogen gas could've blown massive craters into the moon's surface.

Scientists have figured out what makes some sheep extra gassy.

Gut microbe manipulation could end climate-destroying sheep farts

Gassy Guts

To prevent farm animals from contribute to methane emissions, scientists suggest feeding them foods less likely to produce the greenhouse gas.

Gut Microbe Manipulation Could End Climate-Destroying Sheep Farts

We could cut the methane off at its source.

"With our current measurements, we have no way of telling if the methane source is biology or geology."

New NASA rover discovery hints at signs of life on Mars

Mars Farts

NASA's Curiosity Rover just found methane readings at a Martian site to be three times as high as the previously record level — posssibly a sign of life.

New NASA Rover Discovery Hints at Signs of Life on Mars

Curiosity just detected mysteriously high levels of methane on the Red Planet.﻿

"That would buy us time to address the more difficult set of carbon dioxide sources."

Scientists' startling idea to fight climate change: more CO2

CO2 Sucks

Scientists from Stanford University are arguing that we should be converting methane into more carbon dioxide to help with climate change.

Scientists’ Startling Idea to Fight Climate Change: More CO2

The organic gas is coming from a giant ice sheet on the planet's surface.

Astronomers spot Mars' missing methane

Space Gas

A new astronomical study found out where the methane on Mars is coming from, and once again confirmed that it's there at all.

Astronomers Found Mars’ Missing Methane

Mars' methane eluded atmospheric surveys, but now we know where it came from.

Scientists thought Mars' atmosphere was filled with methane. Now it's missing.

Space Detectives

For the last 15 years, NASA and ESA scientists have found signs of methane in Mars' atmosphere. But a recent survey by an ESA orbiter didn't find any.

Scientists Thought Mars Was Covered in Methane. Now It’s Missing

But the team isn't giving up yet.

The satellite could prevent oil and gas operations from hiding leaks when they know they're going to be inspected.

New satellite could help rat out methane polluters

Earth & Energy

The Environmental Defense Fund plans to launch a satellite by 2020 or 2021 that will specifically seek out leaks of methane, a potent greenhouse gas.

New Satellite Could Help Rat Out Methane Polluters

Methane is 25 times more potent than carbon dioxide.

It's no joke: slowing climate change could come by changing cow farts.

Hacking a cow's gut bacteria could make more meat, less pollution

Could changing cows' gut bacteria alter how much methane they produce, or how they make meat from their food? Scottish researchers are working to find out.

Hacking a Cow's Gut Bacteria Could Make More Meat, Less Pollution

Scientists could customize cows' food to make them grow more efficiently and produce less methane.

Hacking a Cow’s Gut Bacteria Could Make More Meat, Less Pollution

Furthermore, complete melting isn't needed for those gases to be released.

Scientists Assert Climate Change is Allowing Greenhouse Gases to Escape From Melting Permafrost

Pockets in the permafrost that have deeply thawed are responsible for 17 percent of all measured methane in the region

The CO2 in the air could help power the world.

If properly refined, this process could help clean up our atmosphere.
