This is a list of named geological features on Saturn 's moon Titan. Official names for these features have only been announced since the 2000s, as Titan's surface was virtually unknown before the …

Apr 25, 2025 · Titan’s surface is sculpted by flowing methane and ethane, which carves river channels and fills great lakes with liquid natural gas. No other world in the solar system, aside from Earth, has …

Nov 21, 2025 · Titan’s surface, like Earth’s, is sculpted by wind and probably also rain (in the form of liquid methane). “River” channels coated with dark hydrocarbon deposits are common, sometimes …

Nov 9, 2024 · Here we identify and map the major geologic units on Titan’s surface using radar and infrared data from the Cassini orbiter spacecraft. Correlations between datasets enabled us to …

Dec 20, 2025 · For years, scientists thought Saturn’s moon Titan hid a global ocean beneath its frozen surface. A new look at Cassini data now suggests something very different: a thick, slushy interior …

Dec 17, 2025 · Saturn's huge moon Titan may not hide an ocean under its frozen surface but rather widespread pockets of liquid water, a new study finds.

Mar 9, 2024 · This is a list of named geological features on Saturn's moon Titan. Official names for these features have only been announced since the 2000s, as Titan's surface was virtually unknown before …

Dec 19, 2025 · Data from the spacecraft orbiting Saturn hinted that an ocean might lurk beneath the surface of the planet’s largest moon, Titan. That meant the lunar companion could potentially host life.

A view of Titan’s surface from the Huygens probe, showing a landscape with contrasting light and dark regions. The darker areas may indicate past or present liquid activity, possibly shaped by methane or …

May 30, 2025 · This article provides an in-depth look at Titan's surface, covering its geological features, liquid hydrocarbon lakes, and the implications for our understanding of planetary processes and the …
