Webb Telescope Turns Its Eye on Saturn's Mysterious Moon Titan - Gizmodo
The Webb Space Telescope snapped images of Saturn’s moon Titan last month, which are now released for our viewing pleasure.
The telescope’s NIRCam instrument, which images in the near-infrared range, captured the views.They show clouds in Titan’s atmosphere (whimsically named A and B in annotated images) but also a blurry look at Kraken Mare, which is thought to be a methane sea, as well as dark sand dunes.
MIRI will reveal more of Titan’s spectrum; images from the instrument are notable for their starbursts of color, what the Webb team refers to as “skittles” in the sky.
