Mars is canceled: scientists have discovered on Titan substances necessary for humanity

The air temperature on the surface of Titan is in the range of minus 170-180ºС. But at the same time, the satellite has a dense atmosphere - a unique case for our solar system. The atmosphere of Titanium, as well as Earth's, mainly consists of nitrogen (more than 98%), as well as clouds of ethane and methane. Thus, our planet Earth and Titan are currently the only objects in the solar system that have a dense atmosphere, consisting mainly of nitrogen.

In addition to the presence of the atmosphere, Titanium has another extremely interesting feature - its vast hydrocarbon reserves. According to scientists, there are hundreds of times more liquid hydrocarbons on Titan than at present on Earth, and this fact makes it very attractive from the point of view of possible colonization. NASA experts are planning large-scale studies of Titanium in the mid-2020s, for which additional research devices will be sent to it.

This video describes in more detail what scientists have learned about Titan at the moment.
