Depends whether you are a fan of the "dead dinosaur" theory of oil formation.
Problem is the vast amounts of hydrocarbons on the surface and and
the atmosphere of Titan, largest moon of Saturn. I've heard no
serious suggestions that it was once populated by dinosaurs. So we
have an existence proof that vast amounts of higher chain
hydrocarbons can be formed independent of life. Bit of a problem, that.
Solarimpulse is the sort of useless project done in stultified,
degenerate cultures like that of Europe to entertain the masses and
relive a minute part of the faded glory of Europe's age of
exploration and discovery.
