Riportato dall'IA
NASA researchers proposed that Titan's lakes could support primitive cellular life, advancing astrobiology theories. The idea was presented on September 6, 2025. It draws from recent data analysis.
Discovery challenges chemistry rules on Saturn's moon Titan
Researchers from NASA and Chalmers University have found that polar and nonpolar substances can mix on Titan's surface, defying the 'like dissolves like' principle. This occurs under the moon's extreme cold, where hydrogen cyanide forms stable crystals with methane and ethane. The finding could reshape understanding of Titan's geology and prebiotic chemistry.
