The Development of a Probalistic Model for Tholin Aggregation in Titan's Atmosphere

Titan is one of the more distinctive bodies in our solar system. In addition to being the largest of Saturn's moons, its thick atmosphere gene-rates interest because of its similarities and differences with Earth [1, 2]. Like Earth, Titan's lower atmosphere contains clouds which precipitate as rain [2]. This rain forms lakes and rivers of liquid methane and ethane which erode and shape the surface, much like water does on Earth, before evaporating into the atmosphere [2]. In Titan's atmospheric system, a single dominating factor controls the weather, the concentration of the organic molecule tholin.
