Saturn’s Moon Titan Breaks One of Chemistry’s Oldest Rules, NASA Study Reveals
Saturn’s moon Titan has shocked scientists by breaking a key chemistry rule. NASA and Chalmers University researchers found that polar and nonpolar molecules, usually immiscible, can mix under Titan’s extreme cold. The discovery deepens our understanding of prebiotic chemistry and could reveal how life’s building blocks form in frigid extrate...

James Webb Offers First Glimpse Into How Moons Are Built Around Distant Planets
The James Webb Space Telescope has detected carbon-bearing molecules in a moon-forming disk surrounding CT Cha b, a massive planet-like object orbiting a young star 625 light-years away. The discovery marks the first measurement of its kind and offers clues to how moons like those around Jupiter and Saturn might have formed.

Rare Titan Shadow Transits Will Sweep Across Saturn in Summer 2025
In a rare celestial alignment, Saturn’s largest moon Titan will cast its shadow across the planet in a series of stunning transits during the summer and early fall of 2025. These events, visible through telescopes, appear as dark “holes” drifting across Saturn’s face as Titan eclipses the planet. The phenomenon occurs only near Saturn’s e...

Brightest Planets in June’s Night Sky: How and When to See Mercury, Venus, Mars and Saturn
Skywatchers can spot Mercury, Venus, Mars, and Saturn in prime June skies during dusk and dawn hours. With Mercury at its best visibility, Mars pairing with Regulus, and Venus and Saturn rising before sunrise, celestial highlights abound. A crescent moon joins Mars on June 29, making this month ideal for skywatching and astrophotography.
