ScienceWebb reportedly captures methane clouds and active weather on Titan
A post citing NASA says Webb also detected chemical steps involved in forming complex organic molecules, and that scientists are using the data to prepare for NASA's Dragonfly mission.
TLDR
A post citing NASA describes Webb's near-infrared observations of Titan, Saturn's largest moon, showing bright methane clouds and weather activity in its northern hemisphere. The post compares Titan's methane-and-ethane cycle to Earth's water cycle. It says Webb's spectrometers detected steps in the formation of complex organic molecules and that scientists are using the data to prepare for NASA's planned Dragonfly rotorcraft mission.
