Thought this article title was a little over the top, the kind of one you would
expect to see followed by lots of exclamation marks.

Interesting article though.

"IF LIFE exists on Titan, Saturn's biggest moon, we could soon know about it - as long as it's the methane-spewing variety. The chemical signature of microbial life could be hidden in readings taken by the European Space Agency's Huygens probe when it landed on Titan in January."
