Saturn's moon Titan shows an unusual bright spot that has scientists puzzling over what it might be. The recently discovered 483-kilometer-wide region may be a "hot” (infrared-bright) spot on Titan is the type of enigmatic feature that is best investigated by putting together as many differ...

A giant methane-spewing volcano has been spotted in close-up images of Saturn's giant moon Titan. But the Cassini and Huygens spacecraft failed to find any signs of the expected oceans or lakes of liquid methane. [img]http://saturn.jpl.nasa.gov/multimedia/images/mo...

This Cassini image was taken on May 24, 2005 and received on Earth May 24, 2005. [url=http://saturn.jpl.nasa.gov/multimedia/images/raw/casJPGFullS11/N00034751.jpg]Expand[/...

The chemical signature of microbial life could be hidden in readings taken by the European Space Agency's Huygens probe when it landed on Titan in January, 2005. Chris McKay of NASA's Ames Research Centre in Moffet Field, Cal...

August 22, 2005, Titan Flyby This map of Titan's surface illustrates the regions that will be imaged by Cassini during the spacecraft's close flyby of Titan on Aug. 22, 2005. At closest approach, the spacecraft is expected to pass approximately 3,800 kilometres above the moon's sur...

The Cassini mission has made the most detailed ever study ever Saturn’s largest moon, Titan, and its atmosphere. The results could lead to a better understanding of the conditions that existed on the young Earth. Titan...

Animated artist's interpretation of the area surrounding the Huygens landing site based on images & data returned Jan 14 2005 (Titan's chemistry may be similar to that of earths 400 million years ago).

Will NASA Sail the Great Lakes of Titan? The world's astrobiology community is all abuzz over one of NASA's most exciting Discovery Mission proposals ever considered to explore the vast methane lakes in the Northern Polar region of Saturn's moon, Titan. This Titan ocean "Lake Lander" w...
