The Moons Symphony: III. Titan Equatorial Dunes and Methane Monsoons
Titan! Huygens!
Through the clouds it conquers
It's waited seven years
And now, with Earth so far behind
What will the Huygens find on Titan?
The atmosphere so thick and dense
A stubborn cloud's defence for Titan
Heat shield is set ablaze
Huygens is through the haze
Pirouetting the sky
Cassini reveals what lies
The methane polar seas
This waveless sea sight
Reflects liquid sunlight
Golden and glistening
Hydrocarbon falls through skies
Settles dust to our surprise
A sea of sand dunes
Where Titan winds of ancient play
The monstrous seas
The methane lakes
The icy mountains
The monsoon clouds form
Sparks methane thunderstorms
Titan, Titan, Illuminated!
Victory! Huygens!
It has more than conquered
Unlocking clouded worlds
And now, the veil has been dissolved
More mysteries we can solve on Titan
Where stunning Earthy world-like sights
All taken from the heights on Titan
