- Calculate the escape velocity of Titan.Enceladus is a moon of Saturn. What unique feature does it possess? which is the correct answer? Cryovolcanism, where water erupts instead of silicate rock A dense system of rings An atmosphere thicker than Earth's Internal heating due to radioactivity Has an orbit inside Saturn's ringsThe Moon's mass is 1/80 that of Earth, and the lunar radius is 1/4 Earth's radius. Based on these figures, calculate the total weight on the Moon of a 100-kg astronaut with a 50-kg space- suit and backpack, relative to his or her weight on Earth.
