Presented by Geoff Watts
Is there life on Titan, Saturn's largest satellite? It may have an atmosphere like that of primitive Earth and conditions there might have led to the formation of the molecules that are the precursors of life. Earth-weather- permitting, the first of NASA's two Voyager missions to Jupiter, Saturn, and their satellites, and perhaps even to Uranus and Neptune, is blasting off from Cape Canaveral today., Jupiter's
Great Red Spot, Saturn's and Uranus's Rings, and Titan's strange atmosphere are some of the features space scientists intend to study during the 12-year mission.
