Titan, a moon of Saturn, is the only object in the solar system besides Earth with liquid on its surface, making it relevant for the search for life beyond Earth. But instead of water, methane and ethane make up Titan’s rivers and seas. Join scientists as they explore Titan with NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope and develop the forthcoming Dragonfly mission, which will send an octocopter to this fascinating moon.
