A huge storm the size of India has been observed over Saturn's moon Titan. Scientists are now working to try and piece together the processes that cause such storms to form there which are rare but typically last a few weeks.
Worried about nasty tropical weather? Be glad you're not on Saturn's moon Titan. Astronomers have discovered a storm system on Titan the size of India. It popped up in April 2008 in the moon's tropics, a latitude belt not known for cloudiness.
