Saturn's moon Titan has an atmosphere that spins with a tilt completely separate from the moon's surface rotation.

The puzzling behavior of Titan's atmosphere has been revealed by researchers at the University of Bristol for the first time.

revealed that Huygens could have hit and cracked an ice 'pebble' on landing, and then it slumped into a sandy surface possibly dampened by liquid methane. Had the tide on Titan just gone out?

The Surface Science Package, designed and assembled in the UK (in partnership with ESTEC and SRC Warsaw), was the first part of the Huygens probe to make contact with Titan's surface.

How can seasons on Saturn’s largest moon, Titan, influence its atmosphere? This is what a recent study published in The Planetary Science Journal hop | Space ...

Probes showed instead a dense atmosphere and hellish-hot surface. Our own moon ... The scientists who built the Huygens probe that made Titan real were, in their way, doing the same.

In 2005, an alien probe flew through the hazy and cold atmosphere of Titan, the largest moon of Saturn, and landed on the world's surface. That spacecraft -- named the Huygens probe -- was sent ...

In over 40 flybys of Titan, the Cassini-Huygens spacecraft managed to 'see' the surface of the moon with its radar experiment and an infrared camera. By the end of the mission, the Cassini orbiter had ...

It has a dense atmosphere which we mostly cannot see through. Until recently, Titan was one of the few objects in the solar system whose surface was not researched. In 1997, the Cassini/Huygens ...

Twenty years ago, the Huygens probe achieved humanity's first landing on a moon in the outer solar system when it touched down on Titan. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an ...

Cassini data reveal Titan's atmosphere wobbles like a gyroscope, drifting seasonally instead of spinning in sync with the ...
