TITAN

 TITAN

SATURNAE LUNA

In Our Earth, we have rivers, Lakes, Oceans and Rain fall too. The Moon of Saturn also have them. Except Earth, Titan also has Organisms? Let's see about it. 

DISCOVERY OF TITAN:

In the Solar System, the sixth found Moon is TITAN. Galileo discovered the Moons of Jupiter. They are also called as Galilean Satellites. Huygens discovered the First Moon of Saturn and named it as SATURNAE LUNA. That name is not permanent. Because, there are totally 82 moons present around Saturn. Later, Saturnae Luna is named as TITAN, it is a Greek name. It means, Organisms lives before the Birth of God. Titan is the Second Largest Moon in the Solar System. Titan is Bigger than Mercury. This is almost equal to the size of Mars. It is half of the size of Earth. Titan is tidally locked to Saturn. 


It takes 14 days to complete one revolution around the Saturn. Titan is more special Because, It has an atmosphere like our Earth. One of the Moon has Atmosphere??? Scientists surprised. The atmosphere of Titan is made up of 95% of Nitrogen, 3% of Methane and left 2% of Poisonous Gases. Carbon and Oxygen are negligible. Due to the negligible amount of Green House Gases, The Titan didn't maintain its temperature. The atmosphere is too denser and only 1% of Sun's Light passes through the Moon. The surface temperature of the Titan is -180
°C. In this temperature water is in Solid State. But, Methane, Ethane and others are in Liquid State. These forms the Methane Lake, Methane Oceans etc. Titan also forms the Methane Clouds.   

Water on TITAN:


The surface of Titan is made up of Ice and from the surface to the Core around 80kms contains Water. The water is two times than the Water in Earth. Titan has no Tectonic Plates and its Core also turned Off. It has no Magnetic Field. Titan also forms the Cyanide Clouds. Earth's Organisms can't survive on Titan. The Titan is under Category-II. The Organisms formed on Earth only 300 million years ago. Before 300 million years, Our Earth also like the Titan. In future, Titan also forms the Microorganisms. In 2035, NASA plans to launch the Dragon Fly, a Drone to Titan to research whether is it possible to survive on Titan. 

The CONCLUSION:

If we could Live on Titan, We destroy Earth and will go to destroy Titan too.
