Saturn's largest moon, Titan, is unique among the other moons in the solar system. It possesses a thick atmosphere composed of hydrocarbons and is in some ways analogous to Earth's with methane forming clouds, rain and surface lakes. New discoveries and insights continue to be made 8 years after the end of the Cassini mission, and in the 20th year since the Huygens landing on Titan. The Dragonfly rotorcraft, scheduled to arrive at Saturn’s moon Titan in 2034, will continue the exploration of this enigmatic moon’s complex organic chemistry and diverse geomorphology, with various laboratory studies already underway to inform the in situ measurements that Dragonfly will make. This topical Titan session solicits novel presentations on all aspects of Titan science, including data analysis from Cassini-Huygens, recent observations, new modeling and laboratory work, and related analog field work.
