NASA.gov brings you images, videos and interactive features from the unique perspective of America’s space agency. One AU is the distance from Earth to the Sun. In 2005 the robotic Huygens probe landed on Titan, Saturn's enigmatic moon, and sent back the first ever images from beneath Titan's thick cloud layers. Titan is about 759,000 miles (1.2 million kilometers) from Saturn, which itself is about 886 million miles (1.4 billion kilometers) from the Sun, or about 9.5 astronomical units (AU).

Light from the Sun takes about 80 minutes to reach Titan; because of the distance, sunlight is about 100 times fainter at Saturn and Titan than at Earth. Images captured by the DISR reveal that Titan has extraordinarily Earth-like meteorology and geology. Titan has a radius of about 1,600 miles (2,575 kilometers), and is nearly 50 percent wider than Earth’s moon. Images show Titan's icy dunes are gigantic, reaching, on average, 0.6 to 1.2 miles (1 to 2 kilometers) wide, hundreds of miles (kilometers) long and around 300 feet (100 meters) high. NASA has announced that our next destination in the solar system is the unique, richly organic world Titan.

The parachute tha In the foreground, sits the car-sized lander that sent back images for more than 90 minutes before running out of battery power. Advancing our search for the building blocks of life, the Dragonfly mission will fly multiple sorties to sample and examine sites around Saturn’s icy moon.
