Titan is the only moon in the Solar System with clouds and methane lakes. He might be habitable but terraformable.

Bio[]

Titan is a moon who acts like the big brother of Saturn's moons and also acts like the cool dude knowing he is the 2nd biggest moon of the Solar System, next to Ganymede. He also shares his orbit with Hyperion, so he is friends with him although he causes Hyperion's chaotic rotation.

Titan is also the only moon in the Solar System with clouds, his clouds are so thick, Earth had no idea what was on his surface until the Cassini sent a probe to land on Titan. Titan also has lakes of methane and even his own hurricanes! The clouds are caused by his thick atmosphere. He also has cryovolcanoes, revealing he has active weathering and his surface changes.

Trivia[]

  • Titan and Ganymede are the only moons to be bigger than a planet (bigger than Mercury)
  • Titan has no magnetic field however Saturn's magnetic field protects his atmosphere from the solar wind, without Saturn's magnetic field, the most unique moon in the solar system would lose most to what makes it interesting.
