Titan

Titan (or Saturn VI) is the largest moon of Saturn and the second largest moon in the Sol system, after Jupiter's moon Ganymede. It is roughly 50% larger than Earth's moon by diameter, and is larger by diameter and mass than all known dwarf planets. It is also larger by diameter than the planet Mercury, though Mercury is more than twice as massive.

Historical
Titan was first discovered by human astronomer Christiaan Huygens on 25 March, 1665.

It was first mapped by the Cassini-Huygens mission probe in the early 21st century.

The next significant mission to Titan came in 2020, when Colonel Shaun Jeoffrey Christopher led the first manned mission to near-Saturn space.

Titan was colonized some thirty years later, as people fled Earth during the early days of World War III. In 2050, the first colony was established under a pressure dome constructed on the site of the Colonel's original touchdown, and became known as Christopher's Landing.

By the 2060s, a terraforming project had begun, under the direction of Micah Brack. It was completed in the early 24th century.
