Vacationing on Titan, bring your umbrella this week on planetary radio.

Welcome, I'm at Kaplan of the Planetary Planetary Society, with more of the human adventure across our solar

system and beyond.

You may need a lot more than an umbrella if you're on Titan during a real downpour.

We'll talk with two UCLA scientists whose model

of the climate on Saturn's big moon predicts truly titanic storms happen much more

frequently than previously thought.

Bruce Betts has more about the upcoming total lunar eclipse that many of you will be able to

see.

We open by welcoming back my colleague Jason Davis.

Jason is the Planetary Society's digital editor.

He just wrote about plans to visit yet another of our solar systems,

Ocean Worlds.

Jason, great piece that you put in the Planetary Society blog on January 11th. You were

laboring apparently under a misconception that I also had but you have disabused me of I think that's the right term which is

that Enceladus might have been the better place to send something like the Europa

Clipper not Not necessarily?

Yeah, so I think that this misconception came from the fact that Cassini was sending us all these awesome

pictures of the plumes coming from Enceladus and there's evidence that they're linked directly to the subsurface

ocean there. So if you want to sample what's in the ocean, why not just fly through those

plumes and grab a nice sample and look it over.

And Kacini did that to some regard.
