Best view from Earth

Titan is one of the largest moons in the Solar System. It is larger than Mercury and Earth's moon. It is the only moon with an atmosphere.

Titan's atmosphere is 60% thicker than Earth's.

From Earth, the Hubble Space Telescope, when observing in infrared light, can just make out surface markings on Titan.
