Thanks James.

Morning to dark on Titan would average 7.97 earth days, but it would vary with season and latitude.

I know Titan shows the same side to Saturn all the time, and it orbit is the same axis as the rings - but if standing on the surface, how long would a day be, from morning to dark as expressed in hours.

Thanks!

The illumination at the cloud tops of Saturn or Titan, which one could call `broad daylight' in the Saturn system, is about 1/100th of daylight on Earth and is similar to early Earth twilight or dusk. At the surface of Titan, it is akin to deep Earth twilight or dusk.

Quite interesting.What I'd like to know,however,it's the level of illumination on Titan's surface;I've seen that Titan receives "only 1% of the sunlight",but I have unclear if that 1% refers to the sunlight received to the Saturnian system compared to what's received on Earth or if that 1% it's a "1% of that 1%" (in other words,Titan's surface receives only 1/10000th of illumination Earth receives)
