Saturnian moons
Saturn’s moons are natural satellites orbiting the planet, varying greatly in size and features. Some, like Titan, are large and have thick atmospheres, potentially hosting chemical processes akin to early Earth. Others are small, icy or rocky, with irregular shapes and cratered surfaces, formed from debris or captured objects. These moons provide insight into planetary formation and the dynamic environment of Saturn’s system, with some exhibiting unique traits such as geysers or subsurface oceans. Studying them helps scientists understand planetary processes, the potential for life, and the history of our solar system.
