Illustration depicting the view from the surface of Saturn's largest moon Titan. Saturn is at upper left and the Sun is at centre right. Titan is the only moon in the Solar System with clouds and a thick atmosphere made primarily of nitrogen, along with traces of methane and other hydrocarbons. Titan is also the only celestial body, apart from Earth, where clear evidence of stable bodies of surface liquid has been found.
