Science goals and new mission concepts for future exploration of Titan's atmosphere geology and habitability: Titan POlar Scout/orbitEr and In situ lake lander and DrONe explorer (POSEIDON)
Sébastien Rodriguez, Sandrine Vinatier, Daniel Cordier +61
In response to ESA Voyage 2050 announcement of opportunity, we propose an ambitious L-class mission to explore one of the most exciting bodies in the Solar System, Saturn largest m…
Detection of Propadiene on Titan
Nicholas A Lombardo, Conor A Nixon, Thomas K Greathouse +8
The atmosphere of Titan, the largest moon of Saturn, is rich in organic molecules, and it has been suggested that the moon may serve as an analog for the pre-biotic Earth due to it…
Ethane in Titan's Stratosphere from Cassini CIRS Far- and Mid-Infrared Spectra
Nicholas A Lombardo, Conor A Nixon, Melody Sylvestre +4
The Cassini Composite Infrared Spectrometer (CIRS) observed thermal emission in the far- and mid-infrared (from 10 cm to 1500 cm), enabling spatiotemporal studies of…
Cassini Composite Infrared Spectrometer (CIRS) Observations of Titan 2004--2017
Conor A. Nixon, Todd M. Ansty, Nicholas A. Lombardo +16
From 2004 to 2017, the Cassini spacecraft orbited Saturn, completing 127 close flybys of its largest moon, Titan. Cassini's Composite Infrared Spectrometer (CIRS), one of 12 instru…
Spatial and Seasonal Variations in C3Hx Hydrocarbon Abundance in Titan's Stratosphere from Cassini CIRS Observations
Nicholas A Lombardo, Conor A Nixon, Richard K Achterberg +4
Of the CH hydrocarbons, propane (CH) and propyne (methylacetylene, CHCH) were first detected in Titan's atmosphere during the Voyager 1 flyby in…
A Hexagon in Saturn's Northern Stratosphere Surrounding the Emerging Summertime Polar Vortex
L. N. Fletcher, G. S. Orton, J. A. Sinclair +13
Saturn's polar stratosphere exhibits the seasonal growth and dissipation of broad, warm, vortices poleward of latitude, which are strongest in the summer and absent…
