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 ...

The puzzling behavior of Titan's atmosphere has been revealed by researchers at the University of Bristol for the first time. By analyzing data from the Cassini-Huygens mission, a joint venture ...

Cassini-Huygens supplied new evidence about why Titan has an atmosphere, making it unique among all solar system moons, a University of Arizona planetary scientist says. Scientists can infer from ...

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 ...

There’s a mystery about Titan, Saturn’s largest moon, that has been puzzling astronomers for many years — where did its thick, nitrogen-rich atmosphere come from? Titan is the only moon in our Solar ...

Titan may have a home-baked atmosphere. Saturn’s largest moon gets some of its thick atmosphere by cooking organic molecules in a warm core, a new study suggests. The decay of radioactive elements may ...

Life on other planets? Maybe. Brown, gunky stuff on other planets? Yes. A UA research team has discovered that bombarding a nitrogen-rich gas mixture, designed to mimic the atmosphere of Saturn’s moon ...

Titan’s atmospheric winds, temperature and mixing have been revealed by new observations from the Cassini spacecraft. The thick atmosphere of Saturn’s giant moon is rich in organic compounds, whose ...

NASA scientists have discovered a “weird” molecule called cyclopropenylidene, or C 3 H 2, in the atmosphere of Saturn’s moon Titan. The simple carbon-based molecule has never been seen in an ...

Saturn’s moon Titan is distinctive, in part for its orange-ish and hazy atmosphere. It’s virtually impossible to see surface features because the haze is so opaque in the visible portion of the ...

Cassini-Huygens supplied new evidence about why Titan has an atmosphere, making it unique among all solar system moons, a University of Arizona planetary scientist says. Scientists can infer from ...
