The fuel is much precious for earth, the convetional fuel is just looking with a great scarcity ahead, today the petrol is available here on earth, there are lacs of cars and other vehicles are running on the petrol today, the per capita expenditure on petrol by the world is much greater, the important part of the individual country's budget is substracting by providing the fuel for the people. Still today there is no immediate way besides the gas for the liquid fuel, the ethenol is not just best for the current vehicle's engines, if people use it to run the vehicle the vehicle may be go for the repairs in the repairing stations. Sources are not found for the herbal petrol today. any laboratory liquid is not suficient to run the vehicles, because on a large scale this is not possible. The reserviours of the earth are quite insufficient to meet the challenges of the future, say after some 200 years, I don't know the exact cutting line to receive the petrol sumptuously. So then, imagine if petrol found on moon "will defenetly supports in meeting the needs of the vehicles of earth which are running on the petrol.

Hence there is a need to take exploration programs especially for the "petrol search on the different space entity like moon which is quite nearer to earth.

Ain't goner happen

Oil found on Moon was a headline for the Weekly World News.

So the abiotic oil nuts, I mean promoters, were right all along.

But I don't think it would be worth bringing oil from the moon at the moment. Even if there were fist sized diamonds just lying around on the surface it wouldn't be worthwhile to transport them back to earth. Well, maybe one trip would pay for itself, but then the price would crash.

It's more than that. Much much more. If oil was found on the moon, it would be definitive proof of extraterrestrial life. (Where does oil come from? Decayed bio-matter. Ergo, oil on the moon would mean there was, at some point, and for a very extended period of time, life on the moon.)

It would have tremendous implications on geocentric forms of religion as well. We'd likely instantly have lunar-oil deniers running around.

I refer you to this earlier posting on the subject

Someone once pointed out that even if the moon were covered in gold dust, it wouldn't be worth it to go there. The cost of retrieval is far higher than the value of gold. However, if by some incredible fluke some hydrocarbon compound were found on the moon, it would make establishing lunar operations that much easier. You can make a lot of stuff from hydrocarbons. It'd still be too expensive to send the stuff back to the Earth but it would reduce the amount of stuff you have to send to the moon.

It would also make it a lot easier to come back from the moon after going there

You wouldn't need to bring fuel, just oxidizer.

There are some geologists (well, one) who say that oil might not have been formed by the decay of organisms or the decay of organisms only created part of the earth's oil. So if oil was discovered on the moon I'd be guessing it's because this guy is right and abiotic oil exists.

Of course, oil producing life on the moon would be kind of cool.

The Lunar Embassy would own all of the oil anyway.

If we're going with single geologists for our science now, then you might as well tank up at one of the cities over on the far side. There are "scientists" (well one) who would take that position. Hoagland may as well be good for something, hey?

I'm just saying that oil on the moon doesn't necessarily mean there was life on the moon. More than tiny amounts of abiotic oil sounds unlikely to me but we don't know enough to say that it's impossible. I recommend people buy fuel efficient cars and don't rely on discoveries of abiotic oil to tank up their SUVs and continental seige machines.

Yep....that's the same rag that said they found a B-29 on the moon...
and it was found by Bat Boy.
If oil were to be found on the moon, you would have a hard time getting enough water to drill with, just to get to it. Then.....you need a power source to
pull it up...then....well, if you can come up with enough oxygen, I suppose you can fuel a rocket..But......it isn't going to happen. Even if you find pure gold on the moon, it won't pay to bring it back.
Best regards, Dan

As mentioned earlier, oil on the moon would have a large effect on what it would be feasible to produce locally.

You could crack it (heated with solar mirrors) and fuel rockets with that and oxygen (actually quite abundant on the moon), but moving it to the earth would be just plain silly.

There were a few people that realized that the wealth of the New World was not so much in hard-to-find gold,silver,jewels...but in hides & fur,meat,grain,things people used every day.

It'll be the same with the Moon,the money to be made won't come from gold or diamonds,but from other minerals that we need for some reason & we can get it fairly cheap.

No,I don't believe there's oil on/in the Moon.

I believe Spain destroyed themselves as a world power by importing all the gold they found.
They essentially crashed their own economy by devaluating the gold it large unpredictable steps.

They should have imported something of real value such as potatoes

Maize and potatoes were the real treasures of the new world, but the inflationary effect of gold and silver may have been good for the economy of Europe as a whole. Normally when an economy is on a gold and silver standard it will suffer periods of grinding deflation that slow the economy but the new world supplied an inflow of precious metal over an extended period of time. (Note that I am not saying that looting other countries is good for the economy. Europe could have created fiat currencies and had the same effect without taking anyones gold or silver.)

Oil on the moon would explain the president's interest in returning

Hereby I propose my first, rough geological model of the moon and indeed the Universe as a whole:

a bit of dust held up by 4 elephants swimming in oil, and then it's oil all the way down.

Some people would take this as religion any day .
