Editing Ionosphere (section)

==Ionospheres of other planets and natural satellites==
Objects in the Solar System that have appreciable atmospheres (i.e., all of the major planets and many of the larger [[natural satellite]]s) generally produce ionospheres.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.physics.uu.se/research/astronomy-and-space-physics/research/planets/ionospheres/#:~:text=Since%20the%20main%20ionization%20source,Saturn's%20moons%20Titan%20and%20Enceladus. |title=Planetary ionospheres |website=Department of Physics and Astronomy.

The [[atmosphere of Titan]] includes an ionosphere that ranges from about {{convert|880|to|1300|km|mi|abbr=on}} in altitude and contains carbon compounds.<ref>[http://saturn.jpl.nasa.gov/photos/imagedetails/index.cfm?imageId=1498 NASA/JPL: Titan's upper atmosphere] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110511085002/http://saturn.jpl.nasa.gov/photos/imagedetails/index.cfm?imageId=1498 |date=2011-05-11 }} Accessed 2010-08-25</ref> Ionospheres have also been observed at [[Io (moon)|Io]], [[Europa (moon)|Europa]], [[Ganymede (moon)|Ganymede]], [[Triton (moon)|Triton]], and [[Pluto]].
