A new study suggests that the planet’s icy interior and liquid ocean could be insulated with a three-to-six-mile-thick layer ...

According to Schurmeier, methane clathrate is stronger and better insulating than regular water ice. A clathrate crust can keep Titan’s interior warm and make the water ice shell ductile. This implies ...

Still, the surface ice of Titan is indeed composed of water. The new results from a team of planetary scientists at the University of Hawaii at Mānoa revealed that methane gas may also be trapped ...

But while Earth’s rivers and lakes are of liquid water, on Titan—the largest moon of Saturn—it’s liquid methane that sculpts the surface. Add Mars to the mix—where there’s a lot of ...

the state of the sea and water temperature all play a role in whether lost mariners can be found and rescued. A Canadian surveillance aircraft looking for the missing Titan submersible in the ...

Because of its extremely cold temperature, the liquids on Titan are made of hydrocarbons like methane and ethane, and the ...

Because of its extremely cold temperature, the liquids on Titan are made of hydrocarbons like methane and ethane, and the surface is made of solid water ice. A new study, led by planetary ...
