Temporal evolution of atmospheric mass loss in response to stellar flares of different energies. The ratio of the instantaneous mass loss rate to the quiescent mass loss rate is shown
For years, scientists have been intrigued by a weird “wobble” in the atmosphere of Titan, Saturn’s largest moon. Now, new research is revealing clues about Titan’s strange atmospheric tilt, but
