"Titan's atmosphere appears to be acting like a gyroscope, stabilizing itself in space." "Even more intriguingly, we've found that the size of this tilt changes with Titan's seasons." ...

New research reveals more about why Saturn's large moon tilts, a puzzle that has intrigued scientists for decades.

How did Saturn's moon Titan secure an atmosphere when no other moons in the solar system did? The answer lies largely in its size and location. Here, Titan as imaged in May 2005 by the Cassini ...

Now, new experimental research published Feb. 1 in Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta shows that the chemical compounds in Titan’s atmosphere could emerge from processes in its interior, offering a ...

Saturn’s moon Titan has always stood out among the celestial bodies in our solar system. It is the only moon with a thick, hazy atmosphere, and it's often compared to a primitive Earth.

Now, after 13 years of thermal infrared observations from Cassini, researchers have tracked how Titan’s atmosphere tilts and shifts over time. Purple haze around Titan – A false-colour image of Titan ...
