Saturn’s largest moon, Titan, may have formed in a collision with another moon, and ...
New research suggests that Saturn's largest moon, Titan, was formed through a violent collision between two moons around 100 to 200 million years ago.
A massive upheaval in the Saturnian system could have also led to the moon Hyperion.
The collision may also be linked to the formation of the planet's iconic rings.
Now, a study led by SETI Institute scientist Matija Ćuk proposes an explanation linking the formation of the moons and rings, centering on the possibility that Titan is the product of a moon merger.
Saturn’s largest moon Titan has been thought to have a large ocean below its surface. This discovery was made in 2008 by the Cassini mission. However, the Jet Propulsion Lab as been analyzing that ...
Scientists suggest Titan formed from a giant moon collision that also may explain Saturn’s rings and strange moon orbits.
Of the solar system’s planets, Saturn piques the human imagination with its signature rings and impressive moon count of 274. But compelling new research reignites theories of an ancient collision ...
