Scientists have known for a while that Saturn's largest moon, Titan, has rivers and seas of liquid methane on its surface.

Titan’s atmosphere is composed of approximately ... has unveiled significant details about the surface properties and composition of these mysterious seas. Bistatic surveys differ from ...

It turns out that getting an atmosphere—and holding on to it—really comes down to how big and how close to the sun you are (or, for Titan, how close you are to a really big planet).

Titan's atmosphere also creates complex organic molecules that ... Proponents suggest three instruments for LOOKING GLASS: An infrared spectrometer to analyze surface composition and distinguish ...

In the upper layer of Titan's atmosphere, visible here in blue light, methane molecules are being dissociated by sunlight and recombining into ethane and acetylene molecules. Further down ...

Starting in the 1510s, when he was likely not yet 30 years old, Titian developed a style that used rich colors and striking dynamism to enliven the new medium of oil painting. He became Venice ...

New research finds that despite large rivers and seas of liquid methane, Saturn's moon Titan seems mostly devoid of river deltas, raising new questions about the surface dynamics on this alien world.

While all the ingredients are there, the moon's composition likely prevents them from coming together in any meaningful way.

(CNN) -- The Cassini spacecraft's most recent flyby of Titan, Saturn's largest moon, found that its upper atmosphere is full of complex organic material, a discovery that could help unlock the ...

Ride along on the outside of Huygens as it parachutes through Titan's atmosphere at nearly 200 miles per hour. Sound is basically pressure waves that are moving through some medium. So the sound ...

Recent observations made by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) at two mid-infrared bands (12.8 and 15 µm), suggest that the exoplanet could either be bare, airless rock like Mercury or shrouded by ...

SwRI is studying how Saturn’s largest moon maintains its thick atmosphere. Scientists think Titan’s core is covered by several layers of ice and a subsurface liquid ocean. New experiments ...
