I guess it's pretty obvious that I'm an astronomy nut huh? ;-) Anyway the Cassini
finds that the surface of Titan
is very much like Earth. Also Titan is a very windy
world.
The dynamic atmosphere of Saturn's haze-enshrouded moon Titan is revealed
in the first Cassini Imaging Team report on Titan. Scientists, analyzing images
of Titan designed to allow views of the surface and lower atmosphere, have discovered
that the winds on Titan blow a lot faster than the moon rotates. In contrast,
the jet stream of Earth blows a lot slower than the surface of our planet moves.
