Titan is the largest moon of Saturn.
It is the only moon in the Solar System to have a substantial atmosphere, and is the only known body besides the Earth to possess lakes and oceans of liquid on its surface.

Given Titan's thick atmosphere, high pressure, and low gravity, it is said that anything with wings would fly very easily on Titan.
However, would you even need wings? If a human flapped their arms, would that be enough to take off from the ground given the dense air and low gravity?
In this sense I am imagining it could be maybe more similar to swimming than to walking on Earth... but I am eager for any information on this from someone who knows physics better.
As the title says, I need some help. I'm a small YouTuber planning to make a video about Titan. Could you let me know which details I should definitely include about this moon?
Are the dark dunes of Titan lower than the bright areas of Titan?
Apparently the James Webb took this picture back in 2022 but I’m only just seeing it now. Is it just ice that happens to look extremely similar to earth or is there some other explaination?
