“This is the little moon that has it all, and the samples are coming out in space. 
 
There’s a big sign there. Free examples: take one. ”
 
Then drop by the big orange moon Titan and descend beneath its smoggy veil.
 
“It would be one of the seven wonders of the solar system.”
 
Take the titanian skies for a magical mystery tour.

Drift over propane lakes, flammable sand dunes and methane streams.
 
“You could actually stand next to a bubbling brook of liquid methane. I sometimes wonder, what would that sound like?”
