Titania
The universe is a place without limits nor conditions, with many planets to visit, Uranus among them. This gaseous planet has a large amount of methane on its surface and has 27 moons, from which we chose Titania to investigate because it is the largest, and was discovered by William Herschel on January 11, 1787. It caught our attention, since its composition of ice and rock, and also because its orbit is completely within the magnetosphere of Uranus' magnetosphere.
We think that Nasa should send a probe to Titania, because It is the biggest satellite of Uranus, which means it has the minimum distance from which the probe should be in order to scan the planet and it might increase the chances to succeed.
Another reason is that it is geologically active, which means its surface could have potentially changed since the last probe scan. We know the concept of life on Earth, and we doubt the existence of other beings in the universe, so launching a probe to Titania would help us bring proves and materialize a concept of life.
Our intention is to demonstrate how to launch a probe to Titania should be carried out, since it has the conditions to be investigated by the probe. The main thing we want to test is the existence of water in the satellite, since we believe that because there is a lot of ice on the planet, the probe might find a spot in the satellite which may be hot enough for the ice to melt. This may help us find answers to concerns, such as the existence of life outside the Earth.
