Digital work
Huge jets of water ice that rise thousands of kilometers above the surface. Undoubtedly, one of the greatest wonders of the Solar System.
The powerful gravitational force of Saturn heats the interior of the small moon, making possible the existence of an inner ocean of liquid water. When the water is expelled to the outside, when it contacts the space vacuum it vaporizes and explodes, forming the geysers. Immediately the vapor is frozen again, falling in the form of snowflakes.

Casi inmediatamente este vapor se vuelve a congelar y cae en forma de copos de nieve.
Storm on Titan
Digital work
Dense clouds of methane that cause violent storms often occur on the largest moon of Saturn, Titan. And most likely we will find other meteorological phenomena, such as heavy rains of liquid methane (whose drops must be larger than those of rainwater on Earth), lightning and thunder and the rainbow ...
