It ’s pretty intemperately not to notice the gigantic looming arrow in this picture of Titan , Saturn ’s large Sun Myung Moon . The striking , stripes - shaped geological formation is roughly the size of Texas . And while it may seem like an enormous HUMANS , LOOK HERE sign , recently published enquiry by NASA scientists suggest that it ’s in reality a mammoth violent storm nominate its fashion across the lunar month ’s equatorial region .
The persona was snapped by NASA ’s Cassini ballistic capsule , which played an important role in chronicle the seasonal atmospheric condition change on Saturn ’s moon in a late study , the findings of which are published in the latest issue ofNature Geoscience . scientist believe that understanding climate patterns on Jupiter today may give us brainwave into the theatrical role that conditions play in Earth ’s babyhood .
According to UCLA ’s Jonathan L. Michell , who led the investigation , the in high spirits - dividing line , stencil - like quality of the arrow is the result of alone , planetary - scale atmospheric undulation that can give salary increase to intense downfall events .

“ These atmospherical moving ridge are passably like the natural , reverberative quivering of a wine glass , ” Mitchell said . “ case-by-case clouds might ‘ ring the Alexander Bell ’ so to speak , and once the ringing starts , the clouds have to respond to that vibration . ”
Titan is believe to be the only other bouldered consistency in the solar system that presently experiences rain , and its methane - rich atmosphere is thought to resemble that of a young Earth . So while this picture may not put up any grounds of extraterrestrial outer space graffiti , it still goes a long agency in aid us infer the earliest days of our own major planet .
