NASA scientists have discovered a molecule in Saturn moon Titan's atmosphere that has never been detected in any other atmosphere. In fact, many chemists have probably barely heard of this molecule called cyclopropenylidene, or C3H2.
Researchers have discovered that most of the ice over the Enceladus is fresh, according to the latest infrared images released by NASA. This discovery suggests that there might be global internal activity resurfacing the moon.
A study has revealed that volcano-like features were witnessed in the polar region of Saturn's moon Titan with the help of NASA's Cassini spacecraft. The study titled: 'Morphological Evidence for Volcanic Crater near Titan's North Polar Region' was published by Planetary Science Institute Senior Scientist Charles A Wood and co-author Jani Radebaugh of Brigham Young University.
Using data from NASA's Cassini spacecraft, scientists have discovered that Saturn's moon Titan is drifting a hundred times faster than previously understood -- about 11 centimeters per year.
Researchers have found that Saturn's largest moon Titan undergoes significant seasonal changes in its energy budget -- the amount of solar energy it absorbs, and the heat it emits -- an advance that may lead to new insights about climate fluctuations on the Earth.
