Saturn’s Moon Titan May Have Hidden Ocean of Water
March 21, 2008
Boston (dbTechno) - According to scientists, Saturn’s giant moon Titan may actually have an ocean of liquid water. They have discovered evidence that there is a hidden ocean of water below the surface of the giant moon.
Scientists are basing their assertions on evidence they have acquired from analyzing radar images and other information about Titan.
The information was all acquired by the NASA Cassini spacecraft, which has taken images of Titan since 2004.
Scientists have been able to figure out, based on the winds in the atmosphere of Titan, that a ocean of liquid water could actually be around 60 miles below the surface.
They stated that the ocean would be buried under 60 miles of ice.
The findings have been published in Thursday’s issue of the journal Science, and is an amazing discovery to say the least.
This would surely launch a major study into whether the ocean could support life.
