Titan is the only known moon with an atmosphere, and the most Earth-like place we know of. It has rain, lakes, and oceans, and researchers have this month discovered ice features, deep lakes on ...

Scientists are unraveling the mysteries of Titan, Saturn’s largest moon, and its dense nitrogen-rich atmosphere. Despite its ...

Scientists are studying Saturn's moon Titan to assess its tidal dissipation rate, the energy lost as it orbits the ringed planet with its massive gravitational force. Understanding tidal dissipation ...

The ice volcanoes are of special interest ... Yes, just like our own moon, Titan orbits a planet. But it actually looks and behaves more like an Earth. And that's why, for this mission, NASA ...

Twenty years ago today, I watched TV coverage of a probe descending toward the surface of Titan, a moon of Saturn, while outside my home in Utah snow dusted a rocky mountain outcrop I’d ...

Why it's so special: This picture was taken by the European Space Agency's Huygens probe during its historic parachute descent onto Titan's surface ... above Saturn's largest moon.

During Titan's "ice ages," scientists think nitrogen made up most of the moon's atmosphere, fell as liquid rain, and cycled through the world's icy crust, collecting in pools below the surface.

Titan - Saturn's moon with hydrocarbon lakes under a dense atmosphere First discovered in 1655 by the Dutch astronomer Christiaan Huygens, Titan is the largest of the 82 moons of Saturn we have ...

NASA's ice-hunting VIPER rover could fly to the moon after all — with some help from the private sector. The agency announced ...
