Scientists Attempt to Explain "Magic Islands" on Saturn's Largest Moon

Astronomers have been studying 'magic islands' on the surface of Saturn's moon, Titan.
These 'magic islands' are likely bits of porous, frozen organic solids floating on the moon's liquid oceans.

Titan Covered With Fragments of Obliterated Moons, Scientists Say

Titan's sand dunes may be remnants of collisions between irregular moons captured in its orbit, not organic materials from its thick atmosphere.

Saturn's "Death Star" Moon Is Hiding a Secret Ocean

Mimas, one of Saturn's moons, may have a global ocean beneath its surface.
The discovery of a hidden ocean on Mimas suggests that other moons could also be hiding oceans, opening up the possibility of finding off-world life.

Saturn's moon Mimas could harbour alien life, scientists say

Mimas, one of Saturn's moons, may have an ocean beneath its icy surface.
Data from NASA's Cassini spacecraft suggests that Mimas has an internal ocean rather than a solid core.

Saturn's 'Death Star' Moon May Hide a Massive, Shockingly Young Ocean

Mimas, one of Saturn's moons, may have an oceanic world beneath its icy shell.
The discovery of oceans in the icy moons of Jupiter and Saturn challenges previous assumptions about the existence of liquid water in outer solar system moons.
