The bad news is it' around 1,300 light years away
Have our wishes been answered? Scientists have found an oil field
which contains 200 times more hydrocarbons than there is water on the
whole of the Earth.
Time to wave peak oil goodbye forever … but
before you do I should probably inform you of the tiny hiccup in any
plan to develop this oil field.
It is around 1,300 light years away.
The scientists work at the Max Planck Institute in Germany, and using the
30m-telescope of the Institute for Radio Astronomy they discovered a
vast cloud of hydrocarbons within the Horse Head Nebula galaxy in the
Orion constellation.
