RMG713XW–UK scientist Dr. Michele Dougherty delivers her speech at the Cassini-Huygens spacecraft press conference. Cassini-Huygens a joint NASA European Space Agency mission will enter Saturn's orbit on July 1, 2004 after a seven year journey. UK scientists are involved with instruments on both the Cassini orbiter and the Huygens probe. Huygens will separate and descend onto Titan, Saturn's largest moon on January 14, 2005.

RM2PG5HW3–Space. 20th Mar, 2023. Titan, Saturn's largest moon, looks quite small in comparison to the giant planet behind it in this natural color view from the Cassini-Huygens spacecraft. This image from Aug. 29, 2012, also shows seasonal changes occurring on Saturn; as spring comes to the northern Saturnian hemisphere, the azure blue seen fades, while winter in the south adds a bluish hue. This phenomenon is likely due to shifts in the intensity of ultraviolet light and the haze it produces. Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech/ZUMA Press Wire Service/ZUMAPRESS.com/Alamy Live News

RFJGN6KE–Surface of Titan, computer artwork. This is Saturn's largest moon and the only moon to have a planet-like atmosphere. The atmosphere consists of nitrogen and organic compounds, mainly ethane and methane, which give it its distinctive orange colour. The surface of Titan is depicted as being covered in liquid methane, forming rivers and deltas that empty into lakes. It is thought that the hydrocarbons form as sunlight acts on the methane in Titan's upper atmosphere. There are also mountains, thought to be made of rock and ice.

RFGJ962X–Surface of Titan, computer artwork. This is Saturn's largest moon and the only moon to have a planet-like atmosphere. The atmosphere consists of nitrogen and organic compounds, mainly ethane and methane, which give it its distinctive orange colour. The surface of Titan is depicted as being covered in liquid methane, forming rivers and oceans. It is thought that the hydrocarbons form as sunlight acts on the methane in Titan's upper atmosphere. There are also mountains, thought to be made of rock and ice. Titan's atmosphere could resemble that of primitive Earth and could hold clues about the

RMGE4G57–Global color mosaic of Triton, taken in 1989 by Voyager 2 during its flyby of the Neptune system. Color was synthesized by combining high- resolution images taken through orange, violet, and ultraviolet filters; these images were displayed as red, green, and blue images and combined to create this color version. With a radius of 1,350 (839 mi), about 22% smaller than Earth's moon, Triton is by far the largest satellite of Neptune. It is one of only three objects in the Solar System known to have a nitrogen-dominated atmosphere (the others are Earth and Saturn's giant moon, Titan). Triton has t
