There's something very peculiar about the atmosphere surrounding Titan, Saturn's largest moon: rather than staying constantly fixed in line with its surface, the atmosphere wobbles across the course ...

Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) has partnered with the Carnegie Institution for Science to perform laboratory experiments that recreate the conditions of Saturn's moon Titan in a tiny vial. The ...

Scientists have performed laboratory experiments to better understand how Saturn's moon Titan can maintain its unique nitrogen-rich atmosphere. Titan is the second largest moon in our solar system and ...

The puzzling behavior of Titan's atmosphere has been revealed. The team has shown that the thick, hazy atmosphere of Saturn's largest moon doesn't spin in line with its surface, but instead wobbles ...

How can seasons on Saturn’s largest moon, Titan, influence its atmosphere? This is what a recent study published in The Planetary Science Journal hopes to address as a team of scientists investigated ...

How does Saturn’s largest moon, Titan, have such a methane-rich atmosphere? This is what a recent study published in The Planetary Science Journal hopes to address as a team of researchers ...

As detailed in a new paper published in The Planetary Science Journal, a team of scientists analyzed 13 years’ worth of thermal infrared observations recorded by NASA and the European Space Agency’s ...

Cassini data reveal Titan's atmosphere wobbles like a gyroscope, drifting seasonally instead of spinning in sync with the moon's surface. By analysing data from the Cassini-Huygens mission, a joint ...

Recently, NASA selected the SpaceX Falcon Heavy to launch the Dragonfly aerial probe to Titan, Saturn’s largest moon. The selection constitutes another win for Elon Musk’s launch company. It also ...
