Is life beyond Earth possible? New research into Saturn’s moon Titan suggests it just might be. Scientists have discovered that key precursors for life, known as protocells, could be forming naturally in Titan’s freezing hydrocarbon lakes. These vesicles—tiny, cell-like structures—might be the earliest step toward life as we know it.
Titan, rich in organic material and featuring an Earth-like weather cycle (but with methane instead of water), is now a major focus of NASA’s upcoming Dragonfly mission, set to launch in 2028 and arrive in 2034. This flying rover will explore Titan’s surface, study its atmosphere, and search for signs that life could exist—or already be starting.
