Q: (Initially posted February 5, 2005) FROM STUDENT MEMBER KUNJAL P. IN NY
I am really very interested in the recent exploration of the moon Titan. Can anyone tell me anything about it? I know that they are looking for carbon and proteins, and that means that there may be life on the planet, but I was wondering if they have found anything so far. This topic is really exciting and I hope that we do find something, it would be a great field to explore!

A: FROM MENTOR AIMEE WILLOZ IN MN
Hi Kunjal! I don't know much about the Cassini mission, but there's a ton
of information on NASA's website. Here's a link to the page talking about
what they've found on Titan so far:

and here's the home page for the Cassini mission:

Have fun exploring!
