Largest sea on Saturn’s Titan over 1,000 ft deep, not 115 ft: Scientists

Researchers have estimated that the largest sea on Saturn’s moon Titan, Kraken Mare, is over 1,000 feet deep near its centre and not 115 feet, as previously estimated.

It contains about 80% of Titan’s surface liquids, study lead author Valerio Poggiali of Cornell Center for Astrophysics and Planetary Science said. The findings were based on NASA’s Cassini mission’s data.

According to Indian Express, As a result of the new findings of the mystery moon, researchers believe that they can send a robotic submarine to Kraken Mare.

The mission is subjected to be funded and approved by NASA. But, if it happens, by the end of the decade we will be poised to know more about Saturn’s fascinating moon.
