Titan ( tye'-tun , Greek Τιτάν ) is the largest moon of Saturn and the second largest moon in the solar system   Administrator note: , after Jupiter's moon Ganymede . It was discovered on March 25 , 1655 by the Dutch astronomer Christiaan Huygens   Administrator note: , and was the first satellite in the Solar System to be discovered after the Galilean moons of Jupiter . Titan is the only moon in our solar system to have a dense atmosphere   Administrator note: . Until very recently, this atmosphere inhibited understanding of Titan's surface, but the moon is currently undergoing study by the Cassini-Huygens mission, and new information about it is continuously accumulating.

Titan is the planet Saturn 's largest moon . It is larger than either of the planets Mercury or Pluto and is the second-largest moon in the solar system after Ganymede (it was originally thought to be slightly larger than Ganymede, but recent observations have shown that its thick atmosphere caused overestimation of its diameter). Titan was discovered on March 25 , 1655 by the Dutch astronomer Christian Huygens , making it one of the first non-terrestrial moons to be discovered.
