Tantalizing Titan

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

Normally hidden by a thick, hazy atmosphere, features on Titan's surface appear in this false-color view. The Cassini spacecraft recorded this image as it approached its first close flyby of Saturn's moon on October 26. Red and green colors represent specific infrared wavelengths absorbed by Titan's atmospheric methane. Bright and dark surface areas are revealed in a more penetrating infrared band.
