Would I be able to see Saturn from the foggy surface of Titan?

FROM THE February 2011 ISSUE

Would I be able to see Saturn from the foggy surface of Titan?

John Lockwood, Washington, D.C.

With human vision, we canт??t see through saturnian moon Titanт??s hazy orange atmosphere (left). But if our eyes were sensitive to near-infrared wavelengths, weт??d be able to observe through the methane and hydrocarbon haze (right).

The view at visible wavelengths is limited, but it would be possible to see Saturn from Titanт??s surface at some near-infrared wavelengths т?? if the weather cooperated.
