Their study, published in the journal *Geophysical Research Letters*, shows that the threshold theory, used to study Earth's ...

Scientists have known for a while that Saturn's largest moon, Titan, has rivers and seas of liquid methane on its surface.

It turns out that getting an atmosphere—and holding on to it—really comes down to how big and how close to the sun you are (or, for Titan, how close you are to a really big planet).

NASA’s groundbreaking Dragonfly mission is one step closer to its 2028 launch after successfully passing its Critical Design ...

In the upper layer of Titan's atmosphere, visible here in blue light, methane molecules are being dissociated by sunlight and recombining into ethane and acetylene molecules. Further down ...

If there's life in the solar system beyond Earth, Saturn's largest moon, Titan, seems a logical place to find it. A new study says maybe, but in tiny amounts.

While all the ingredients are there, the moon's composition likely prevents them from coming together in any meaningful way.

Ride along on the outside of Huygens as it parachutes through Titan's atmosphere at nearly 200 miles per hour. Sound is basically pressure waves that are moving through some medium. So the sound ...

On its way down, Huygens collected valuable data on Titan's dense atmosphere, finding a host of photochemical reactions — light-driven chemical reactions that shape the moon's chemical ...
