    And this discovery means that "Titan is the only moon in the solar system with seasonal weather patterns, which is possible because it has the necessary atmosphere"according to the website "Daily Mail" British.Previous research shared in April found that "Titan is surprisingly Earth-like in terms of landscape formations, with its dark-colored land and sand dunes".
    The Moon also features rivers, lakes and seas filled with falling rain – although the rain is liquid methane, it falls through winds of nitrogen..
    Scientists have long believed that Titan was unique compared to other moons in the solar system, and recent research has proven that their theories could be correct..

    And “Titan” is the largest of Saturn’s moons, and it is the only moon known to have a dense atmosphere. It is characterized by electrically charged sand, methane-flowing lakes, and a hazy atmosphere, but the James Webb space telescope(JWST)He discovered that Titan also has seasonal weather patterns..
    And astronomers announced, Thursday, that the telescope “detected bright spots in the northern hemisphere of Titan, which are large clouds, confirming the predictions of a computer model, which showed clouds in late summer, when the surface temperature rises due to the sun.”.
    The clouds have not been seen before due to the dense haze in Titan’s atmosphere, which obscures visible light reflected from the surface, but the telescope features infrared rays that are able to penetrate smog..
