The Cassini orbiter discovered evidence of an underground ocean churning deep below the surface of Titan, Saturn's largest moon, and the Mars Odyssey spacecraft has found ancient salt deposits on the red planet. Both discoveries have...http://www.newser.com/story/22131/hidden-ocean-found-on-saturn-moon.html?utm_source=syn&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=tagFri, 21 Mar 2008 4:13:55 CDThttp://www.newser.com/story/20957/saturn-moon-rings-detected.html?utm_source=syn&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=tagSaturn’s second-largest moon, Rhea, could be the first known moon with rings. The spacecraft Cassini detected apparent evidence of rings when it spotted debris around Rhea as it flew by in 2005, reports space.com. The set of rings has not been directly seen, but scientists inferred that the rings...http://www.newser.com/story/20957/saturn-moon-rings-detected.html?utm_source=syn&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=tagFri, 07 Mar 2008 4:20:08 CSThttp://www.newser.com/story/19066/want-oil-try-saturns-titan.html?utm_source=syn&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=tagTitan, one of Saturn's dozens of moons, has supplies of natural gas and liquid hydrocarbons hundreds of times greater than Earth’s oil reserves, Space.com reports. The unmanned Cassini spacecraft has mapped only 20% of Titan’s surface with radar, and has already discovered dozens of bodies of hydrocarbon liquid, each...http://www.newser.com/story/19066/want-oil-try-saturns-titan.html?utm_source=syn&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=tagThu, 14 Feb 2008 17:09:31 CSThttp://www.newser.com/story/15566/saturn-has-unexpected-hot-spot.html?utm_source=syn&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=tagSaturn’s frigid north pole has been revealed to have a hot column of compressed air, a surprising discovery by the unmanned Cassini spacecraft, Reuters reports. Scientists already knew that the gas giant’s sun-drenched south pole had such a hot spot, but infrared photographs taken by Cassini revealed a narrow region...http://www.newser.com/story/15566/saturn-has-unexpected-hot-spot.html?utm_source=syn&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=tagThu, 03 Jan 2008 18:08:00 CSThttp://www.newser.com/story/4603/meet-frank-saturns-60th-moon.html?utm_source=syn&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=tagScientists have discovered Saturn’s 60th moon, and are hinting that more could exist. In May, cameras aboard the Cassini spacecraft captured the “extremely faint object,” which scientists have officially designated a moon and tentatively named Frank. Composed mostly of ice and rock, Frank is about a mile wide and orbits...http://www.newser.com/story/4603/meet-frank-saturns-60th-moon.html?utm_source=syn&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=tagFri, 20 Jul 2007 13:09:45 CDThttp://www.newser.com/story/654/nasa-discovers-seas-on-saturns-moon.html?utm_source=syn&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=tagNASA's radar detected evidence of huge seas—one of them larger than any of the Great Lakes—on the surface of Saturn's moon, Titan.
