NASA's Cassini spacecraft captures an infrared view of Saturn moon Titan during a November 2015 flyby in this composite image. - NASA / JPL / University of Arizona / University of Idaho Saturn’s ...

A discovery about Saturn's moon Titan has challenged what scientists thought was a basic rule of chemistry. There, in the extreme cold, some supposedly fundamentally incompatible molecules may combine ...

Scientists report definitive evidence of the presence of lakes filled with liquid methane on Saturn’s moon Titan in this week’s journal Nature cover story. Radar imaging data from a July 22, 2006, ...

Using radar data from NASA’s Cassini spacecraft, recently published research presents a new scenario to explain why some methane-filled lakes on Saturn’s moon Titan are surrounded by steep rims that ...

During its T85 Titan flyby on July 24, 2012, the Cassini spacecraft registered an unexpectedly bright reflection on the surface of the lake Kivu Lacus. Its Visual and Infrared Mapping Spectrometer ...

There are only two objects in the solar system with sustained pools of liquid on their surface: Earth and Titan. On Earth, we have a well-understood water cycle that keeps liquid water flowing on the ...

Titan has permanent bodies of liquid on the surface like Earth, but they're liquid hydrocarbon instead of water. That doesn't explain the perplexing "bathtub rings" around Titan's seas, though. New ...

What if…. you could swim in Titan’s lakes? Saturn’s largest moon, Titan, is unique. It has its own atmosphere.

What can Saturn’s largest moon, Titan, teach scientists about the chemistry of life? This is what a recent study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences hopes to address as a ...
