Discover the plastic material on Saturn's moon
We can easily find plastic everywhere on this Earth rather than in the universe. But the US Aerospace Agency (NASA) has found plastic on a moon of Saturn.

According to Space.com, NASA's Cassini spacecraft detects small amounts of propylene, the essential chemical needed to make plastic products on Earth, in the atmosphere of moon Titan, the largest satellite. Saturn.

This is the first time scientists have found extraterrestrial plastic materials. The Cassini train's infrared spectrum, used to measure infrared light from Saturn and its moons, did this amazing and surprising thing.
'This chemical is present around us in everyday life, connecting together in long chains to form polypropylene . Plastic containers in a grocery store are polypropylene , ' explained NASA scientist Conor Nixon of NASA's Goddard Space Center.
Titan is one of the rare celestial bodies in the solar system with a thick atmosphere, mostly hydrocarbon. These are chemicals that make up oil and fossil fuel products on Earth.
'I was always excited when scientists discovered new molecules in an atmosphere. The discovery of propylene will help us understand more about the chemical components that make up the titanium atmosphere, ' said Cassini scientist Scott Edgington.
