Titan, Saturn’s largest moon appears before the planet as it undergoes seasonal changes in this natural color view from NASA’s Cassini spacecraft in this handout released by NASA August 29, 2012. The US space agency has come up with a recipe that captures key flavors of Saturn’s moon Titan out of a need to understand a previously unidentified chemical composition hidden beyond its orange... 

Images from Cassini spacecraft gave astronomers a great deal of new information about the seas of Titan, a moon of Saturn. The study of Ligei Sea showed that it is mainly composed of liquid methane. The amount of methane in that sea is about 9,000 cubic meters, which is 40 times greater than all proven oil and gas reserves on Earth. The sea is about 160-170 meters deep. In addition to methane, it... 

Image taken by Cassini spacecraft shows plumes which spew out Saturn's moon Enceladus. Recent data and findings from NASA’s Cassini mission have revealed that Saturn’s moon Enceladus can provide scientists with a laboratory for watching unusual behavior of plasma. According to two papers published in the Journal of Geophysical Research, scientists can observe the theorized condition of... 

Image taken by Cassini spacecraft shows at least four distinct plumes of water ice which spew out from the south polar region of Saturn's moon Enceladus. NASA’s Cassini probe is set to make its lowest pass yet over the south polar region of Saturn’s moon Enceladus in order to “taste” the icy particles spraying out from its surface. The close approach will be at an altitude of 74km...
