Detailed images produced by the Cassini spacecraft on December 29, 2006, show a cloud formation about 2,400 kilometers (1,500 miles) in diameter at Titan’s north-pole region. Scientists had never before actually seen such a detailed cloud system on Titan, but had predicted its possible existence.

The Mars Express spacecraft, from the European Space Agency (ESA), has indicated to scientists that the dry atmosphere and surface on the planet Mars does not necessarily mean Mars is dry underneath the surface. In fact, a huge storehouse of water and carbon dioxide could be found in underground reservoirs.

On January 19, 2007 (starting at about 3:29 Alaska Standard Time), NASA launched a project called JOULE II that consists of four rockets to study the aurora display over the skies of northern Alaska. The mission is geared to learn more about the electrical heating of the thin upper atmosphere above the Earth’s surface.
