lua especial em Saturno


Esta é a misteriosa lua de Saturno, Titan, semelhante à Terra em alguns aspectos.

NASA scientists studying images from the Cassini spacecraft's encounter with Saturn's moon Titan, said on October 27, 2004 they were mystified by masses of bright and dark material and surprised at the celestial body's apparent youthful surface. The team at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California, began poring over the data collected on Tuesday by Cassini during its closest fly-by of Titan, the only known moon in the solar system with an atmosphere. This image shows Titan in ultraviolet and infrared wavelengths and was taken by Cassini on October 26. (Foto: NASA-JPL/Reuters)
