Can Titan be bigger than Mars?

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.


What is the ratio of Titan to Saturn?

There is exactly one of each, so the ratio is ' 1 '. Probably the question is about the relative masses or volumes. These ratios are, approximately: Mass: Titan to Saturn is 1 to 4229. Volume: Titan to Saturn is 1 to 11570.


What is the exact length of a titan day?

Titan is in Synchronous orbit with Saturn - the same as our own Moon. Because of this, it's day is the same as it's year. A day is defined as the time it takes an object to rotate once on it's axis, whereas a year is defined as the period it takes to orbit it's parent object - in this case Saturn. So a day and a year on Titan is about 15.945 days. See related link for more information.


What is Saturns satellite name is?

Saturn has 61 identified moons with secure orbits, but we don't know for sure if there are more to yet be discovered. There are millions of smaller rocks and particles orbiting the planet - in the planets extensive ring system. These could be describes as satellites. There is also one artificial satellite in orbit around the planet called Cassini-Huygens, which was put there in 2004 and is still there today.


Which moons is similar to Earth's size?

Two moons that are similar in size to Earth's moon are Ganymede, the largest moon of Jupiter, and Titan, the largest moon of Saturn. Both moons have a diameter that is close to the Earth's moon's diameter.

Why was Artemis the goddess of the moon?

Largely because Apollo was very confused with Helios, the Titan god of the sun, where Apollo was only the god of the light (of the sun) originally. So of course Artemis was associated with Helios' sister, Selene, Titan goddess of the moon.


How many miles from moon to titan?

It varies, but the semi-major axis of Titan's orbit is about 1.22 million km. The actual distance between them would be slightly less, since Saturn itself has an equatorial radius of about 60,000 km.


Is it possible for methane rain to occur on the moon titan?

We believe so. The photos from the Huygens probe that landed on Titan appeared to show oceans of liquid methane, so the concept of "methane rain" isn't too far-fetched.

Why is saturns moon titan of so much interest to scientists studying the origins of life on earth?

Titan is of great interest to scientists studying the origins of life on Earth because it has a dense atmosphere with organic molecules similar to those believed to have existed on early Earth. It also has liquid methane lakes and rivers on its surface, potentially providing a unique environment for studying prebiotic chemistry and the possibility of alternative forms of life. Additionally, its geology, weather patterns, and subsurface ocean make it a fascinating laboratory for understanding the conditions that may have led to the development of life on Earth.
