NASA has released two stunning new images of Saturn’s Titan moon, which scientists say is suitable for alien life.
In the first photo, Titan appears to be surrounded by a multicolored light strip. Scientists call this the “misty sunset”. In the second photo, the entire Titan moon sparkles with blue, green, orange-yellow light …
Beneath this layer of fog is a planet that can be considered an almost complete copy of Earth, with rivers, seas, and atmospheres considered suitable for life.
These stunning images are one of the “relics” of Cassini, the spacecraft that ended its 20-year journey to Saturn in 2017, when it plunged directly into Saturn’s atmosphere.
Based on parameters sent to Earth through space, these images were recorded from March-2005. At the time of the image, Cassini was 33,083 km from the Titan moon.
The data Cassini sent back to Earth proves that beneath the atmosphere there can be many molecular structures that could be the building blocks of complex organic matter – living things beyond Earth. It can be said that Titan is compared to the image of the early Earth, when the first reactions to create life began to occur on Earth.
NASA said that in order not to contaminate the atmosphere of Saturn and its moons, including the precious Titan, scientists calculated that Cassini would use up the excess fuel before it burns itself completely in Saturn’s atmosphere.
