In the upper layers of the atmosphere of Titan began to form a powerful cyclone.
Scientists first saw the winter coming on Saturn’s moon Titan.
According to the website NASA, the researchers noticed the atmospheric change in the southern hemisphere of the satellite, where the upper layers of the atmosphere began to form extensive a powerful cyclone.
The onset of the polar night on Saturn is accompanied by the appearance in the atmosphere benzene, methylacetylene and other complex hydrocarbons, which early scientists did not observe. Observation of the changing seasons on Titan has become possible for the first time since the arrival of the apparatus Cassini in the Saturn system.
Space station, Cassini-Huygens, worth more than three billion dollars, was launched in 1997 to study Saturn and its moon Titan.
