NASA's sending an octocopter-lander to Saturn's cloud-covered moon, Titan, with SpaceX's Falcon Heavy rocket with a launch scheduled for 2028.

The mission is expected to fly in the period from July 5 to July 25, 2028, on a SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket from Florida to explore the moon called Titan. “Dragonfly centers on novel approach to planetary exploration, employing a rotorcraft-lander to travel between and sample diverse sites on Saturn's largest moon,” NASA said in a statement.

NASA has chosen SpaceX's Falcon Heavy rocket for the Dragonfly mission to Saturn's moon, Titan. Scheduled for 2028, this $3.35 billion project will send a nuclear-powered octocopter to explore Titan's habitability.

NASA's Dragonfly mission, launching in 2028, aims to explore the habitability and organic chemistry of Saturn’s moon Titan using a novel rotorcraft lander. NASA has chosen SpaceX to handle the launch for its Dragonfly mission,
