The dense atmosphere of Titan, composed of nitrogen and methane, makes it difficult to observe from spacecraft and telescopes. The Cassini spacecraft, along with Huygens, has been traveling for seven years to reach Saturn orbit, and once the probe detaches and lands on Titan, it will collect valuable data about the moon's surface and atmosphere.\n
