No. Titan was originally though to be larger than Ganymede, but close inspection revealed that Titan is smaller than originally thought. Titan appears somewhat larger than it really is due to a dense haze in its atmosphere.
Titan, a moon of Saturn, is the largest moon, at 2900 kilometers radius.Ganymede, of Jupiter, is second, at 2640 kilometers radius."The Solar System", Roman Smoluchowski, Scientific American Library, 1983, page 164
They are larger than Pluto, but only Titan and Ganymede are larger than Mercury. Triton is smallerthan Mercury.
No, Mars is smaller than Ganymede. Ganymede is the largest moon in our solar system and is even larger than the planet Mercury. Mars is the fourth planet from the Sun and is bigger than Earth's Moon but smaller than Ganymede.
Ganymede is less than half the size of Earth.
In our solar system, the known objects larger than the moon are the sun, all eight planets, and the moons Ganymede, Titan, Callisto, and Io.
Ganymede is bigger than Titan. Ganymede is the largest moon in the solar system and is even bigger than the planet Mercury. Titan is the largest moon of Saturn and is the second largest moon in the solar system.

Yes, Ganymede is the largest natural satellite in our solar system. It is bigger than Pluto and Mercury, although it has a lower mass.

No. Titan's volume is 71,600,000,000 cubic km (0.066 Earths), while Pluto's volume is 6,390,000,000 cubic km or 0.0059 Earths. So Titan is quite a bit bigger by volume.
Ganymede is bigger than Mercury.
The two Jovian planet satellites that are larger in size than mercury are Ganymede and Titan. Ganymede is the moon of Jupiter and Titan is the moon of Saturn.
Why scientists believe a liquid water ocean might exist on the moon
Both Titan and Ganymede are larger than Mercury and Pluto.
They are larger than Pluto, but only Titan and Ganymede are larger than Mercury. Triton is smallerthan Mercury.
No, Titan and Ganymede are two different objects. Titan is one of the moons of Saturn. Ganymede is one of the moons of Jupiter.
No. Titan is the second-largest moon in the solar system with a mean radius of 2,575 kilometers; only Ganymede is larger. Our moon ranks fifth with a mean radius of 1,737 km.
