Titan is the largest moon of the ringed planet Saturn. It is the
only moon in the Solar System to have a dense atmosphere. Just
slightly smaller than Ganymede, Titans relative size is 3/8 of an
inch across, orbiting at a distance of 7 feet from an 8.25”
diameter Saturn.
The Rings of Saturn are a thin band of mostly ice crystals
extending out from the equator. At this scale, they would start
about ½” an inch from Saturn’s surface; be about 8 inches wide and
molecules thin.
Humans have landed a probe on Titan from a mission called
Cassini-Huygens. Scientists believe Titan, with its thick
atmosphere, resembles early Earth. The probe, Huygens, landed on
2005 after an 8 year voyage.
To find Saturn’s Titan make the following adjustments to
Saturn’s decimal minutes
Add 00.050 to the North
Add 00.067 to the West
