Saturn Fun Facts - Saturn is the most remote planet visible from Earth with the naked eye; it appears as the size of a star. - Saturn has been known since prehistoric times, but its rings were not discovered until 1655. - Saturn was long thought to be the only planet in the solar system with rings, but... ...smaller rings were discovered in the 1970s around Jupiter, Uranus and Neptune. - Saturn is HUGE, with a radius nine times that of Earth. - Saturn is 95 times more massive than Earth. - Saturn has 146 confirmed moons, the most of any planet. And that's not counting thousands of moonlets contained in its rings! Titan Fun Facts - Titan is the second largest moon in the Solar System, behind Jupiter’s moon Ganymede—and is larger than the planet Mercury! - Titan is the only moon in the Solar System to have a substantial atmosphere, which is actually denser than Earth’s. - Titan is the only celestial object (other than Earth) on which stable bodies of liquids are known to exist. - Titan’s climates, including wind and rain, create surface features similar to those of Earth, such as dunes, rivers, lakes, seas (probably of liquid methane and ethane), and deltas, and is dominated by seasonal weather patterns just like Earth. - For all these reasons, Titan is often called the most Earth-like celestial object in the Solar System! Fascinating, Freaky Titan Titan, the largest moon of Saturn, is the second-largest moon in the entire Solar System. It is the only moon known to have an atmosphere denser than the Earth's and is the only known object in space (other than Earth) on which there is clear evidence that stable bodies of liquid exist. Titan is one of seven gravitationally rounded moons of Saturn and the second-most distant among them. Frequently described as a planet-like moon, Titan is 50% larger in diameter than Earth's Moon and 80% more massive. It is the second-largest moon in the Solar System after Jupiter's Ganymede and is larger than the planet Mercury. Yet Titan is only 40% as massive as Mercury, because Mercury is mainly iron and rock while much of Titan is ice, which is less dense. Discovered in 1655 by the Dutch astronomer Christiaan Huygens, Titan was the first known moon of Saturn and the sixth known planetary satellite (after Earth's moon and the four Galilean moons of Jupiter). It is primarily composed of ice and rocky material, with a rocky core surrounded by various layers of ice, including a crust of ice and a subsurface layer of ammonia-rich liquid water. Much as with Venus before the Space Age, its dense opaque atmosphere prevented understanding of Titan's surface until the Cassini–Huygens mission in 2004 provided new information, including the discovery of liquid hydrocarbon lakes in Titan's polar regions. The geologically young surface is generally smooth, with few impact craters, although mountains and several possible cryovolcanoes have been found. The atmosphere of Titan is mainly nitrogen and methane; minor components lead to the formation of hydrocarbon clouds and heavy organonitrogen haze. Its climate—including wind and rain—creates surface features similar to those of Earth, such as dunes, rivers, lakes, seas (probably of liquid methane and ethane), and deltas, and is dominated by seasonal weather patterns as on Earth. With its liquids (both surface and subsurface) and robust nitrogen atmosphere, Titan's methane cycle resembles Earth's water cycle, albeit at a much lower temperature of about 94 K (−179 °C; −290 °F). Due to these factors, Titan is called the most Earth-like celestial object in the Solar System.
