It's a yes. Methane comes from living organisms now or in the past if
geological activity is releasing it.


planets of frozen methane exist. just what life processes created
them?

theres a theory that methane and crude oil were created in the early

what we draw from wells actually comes from very deep in the earths
crust

It's deep now because of plate tectonics and sediments or both.
