- The atmosphere affects Earth's long-term climate and short-term local weather and shields us from much of the harmful radiation coming from the sun.

- In 2004, Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity found structures and minerals indicating that liquid water once existed at its landing site.
- Some of these hydrocarbons go on to form grains that make up the "sand" of vast dune fields on Titan's surface.
