Hi player55, The answer is C) Titan. "Titan... it is distinguished by it's thick atmosphere, which can easily be seen in the enlarged version of this image as a fuzzy haze around the limb of Titan." http://ucsu.colorado.edu/~sbrooks/main.html "Titan, the only large satellite of Saturn, is about the same size and composition as Ganymede. However, it has an atmosphere of nitrogen a bit thicker than Earth's atmosphere, with a thick haze of photo-chemical smog which prevents our view of the surface." http://www.physics.utoledo.edu/~lsa/_a1010/mod20.htm I hope this helps.
