Dust Storms on Titan - a photo on Flickriver

            We are familiar with the ability of radar to peer through the thick clouds of Saturn’s moon Titan. But it is also possible to use some of the atmospheric windows for broader views of the surface with the Visual and Infrared Mapping Spectrometer (VIMS).

This compilation of images from nine Cassini flybys of Titan in 2009 and 2010 captures three instances when clear bright spots suddenly appeared in images taken by the spacecraft’s Visual and Infrared Mapping Spectrometer. The brightenings were visible only for a short period of time -- between eleven hours and five Earth weeks -- and cannot be seen in previous or subsequent images.
