#1- What is Titan (Moon) ?
đŸ‘‰Titan is the largest natural satelite of the planet Neptune and the First Neptuneian moon to be discovered, The discovery was made on october 10 1846, by English astronomer willian lassell , It is they only large moon in the in the solar system with a retrograde orbit an orbit in the direction opposite to its planet's rotation, At 2,710 kilometres (1680 Mi) ,In diameter its seventh largest moon in the solar system with a retrograde orbit,
An orbit in the direction it the only satellite of neptune massive enough to be in hydrostafic equilibrium and the second largest planetary moon in relation to it's primary after Eart's moon because of its retrograde orbit and composition similar to pluto Titon is thought to have been a dwarf planet captured from the kuiper belt,

Titan is the sixth gravitationally rounded moon from saturn, Frequently describe as a planet -like moon,titan is 50% larger (in diameter) than Earht's moon and 80% more massive, It is the second largest moon in the solar system
Solar system after jupiter's moon gay ganymade and is large than the planet MMercury , but only 0%,
as massive discovered in 1655 by the dutch astronomer christiaan huygens titan was the first know moon of saturn and the sixth know planetary satellitec(after earth's moon) And four Galileon Moons or jupiter ,Titan orbits saturn at 20 saturn radil From titan's surface saturn subtends an are of 5.09 degrees in the sky than the Moon from Earth,
Titan is primary composed to icy Our Earth
and rocky material which is likely differentiated into a rocky core,Surrounded by various layers of ice including a crust of ice and a subsurface layer of ammonia rich liquid water much is with venus before the space age the dense opaque atmosphere prevented understanding of Titan's surface prevented cassine Huygens mission in 2004 ,provided new information, inckuding the discovery of liquid Hydrocarbon takes in Titan's polar regions , The geologically young surface is genrally smooth with few impact crates although mountains and several possible cryovolcanoess have been found,
The atmosphere of Titan is largely nitrogen minor components lead to the information of the Methane and Ethan clouds and heavy organonltrogen haze, The climate including wind and rain- creates surface features similar to those of Earth such as dense rivers takes seas (probably of liquid methan's and ethane ) and deltas and is dominated by seasonal wealth pattern's as on Earth with its liquids (both surface and subsurface) and robut nitrogen,
Titan Methan's cycle is analogous to Earth's Water cycle as the much lower tempreature of about 94k,
