===Saturn=== {{Main|Exploration of Saturn}} [[Saturn]] has been explored only through uncrewed spacecraft launched by NASA, including one mission (''[[Cassini–Huygens]]'') planned and executed in cooperation with other space agencies. These missions consist of flybys in 1979 by ''[[Pioneer 11]]'', in 1980 by ''[[Voyager 1]]'', in 1982 by ''[[Voyager 2]]'' and an orbital mission by the ''Cassini'' spacecraft, which lasted from 2004 until 2017. Saturn has at least 62 [[Moons of Saturn|known moons]], although the exact number is debatable since Saturn's rings are made up of vast numbers of independently orbiting objects of varying sizes. The largest of the moons is [[Titan (moon)|Titan]], which holds the distinction of being the only moon in the Solar System with an atmosphere denser and thicker than that of Earth. Titan holds the distinction of being the only object in the Outer Solar System that has been explored with a lander, the ''Huygens'' probe deployed by the ''Cassini'' spacecraft.
