Titan's gravity is so weak and its atmosphere so dense that human-powered flight through its sky isn't science fiction — the same physics that would let a person glide there also lets spacecraft descend onto it more gently than almost anywhere else in the solar - Space Daily

Saturn's moon Titan runs the same weather cycle as Earth — clouds, rain, rivers and seas — except the liquid doing all the work is methane, and the bedrock underfoot is water frozen at nearly minus 180 degrees, harder than most stone on Earth - Space Daily

In 1980, Voyager 1 flew close enough to Titan to reveal its thick nitrogen atmosphere — but the gravity-assist geometry bent the spacecraft permanently out of the planetary plane, trading Uranus and Neptune for one close look at Saturn’s largest moon - Space Daily

Titan holds hundreds of times more liquid hydrocarbons than every known oil and gas reserve on Earth combined, yet you couldn't light a single drop — its air is nitrogen and methane, with almost no oxygen, so a campfire is physically impossible - Space Daily
