A new analysis of data from NASA’s Cassini spacecraft may upend Titan’s status as an ocean world. But it might still have pockets of water within a slushy ice layer ...
The faraway moon has 'a slushy high-pressure ice layer' similar to the melting Arctic that could hide extraterrestrial life.
This week, NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California made a big discovery for Saturn. Titan-Saturn’s largest ...
Using NASA's Cassini spacecraft readings and thermodynamic models, researchers determined the reality of Titan's interior.
For more than a decade, scientists have accepted that Titan, Saturn’s biggest moon, has a subsurface ocean of liquid water. A ...
A key discovery from NASA's Cassini mission in 2008 was that Saturn's largest moon Titan may have a vast water ocean below its hydrocarbon-rich ...
This artist's concept depicts NASA's Cassini spacecraft performing one of its many close flybys of Titan, Saturn's largest ...
This project simulates the complete interplanetary trajectory of NASA's Cassini-Huygens mission from January 1998 to January 2004, including all four gravity-assist maneuvers ...
On Oct. 15, 1997, NASA launched the Cassini spacecraft on a mission to explore Saturn and its moons. It took almost 7 years for Cassini to reach Saturn. Another smaller spacecraft called Huygens ...
Cassini image looking across the south pole of Saturn's icy moon Enceladus on 30 November 2010. Jets of water from the moon's underground ocean are visible bursting through cracks in the ice.
