James Webb Space Telescope Reveals New Clues to Earthlike Mysteries on Saturn's Moon Titan

NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope and the Keck II telescope, operated by the California Association for Research in Astronomy, have collected the first direct evidence of cloud formation on Saturn’s moon Titan through atmospheric convection. This convection process, which generates Titan’s characteristic yellow haze, produces rainfall and weather systems similar to those on Earth—but with methane instead of water. In addition to tracking cloud a…
