Why these colours?
Global mosaic texture (NASA 3D Resources)
A global map stitched from spacecraft images (Viking for the moons of Mars, Voyager for the moons of Saturn and Uranus). The images are tone-matched and largely monochrome, so these tones show brightness more than colour.
From: Global mosaic texture (NASA 3D Resources) Enhanced visible colour
Colour clusters describe pixels in an image; they cannot identify a mineral, a gas or a physical temperature. Shares of pixels describe the sampled region of the image, not the object’s surface.
Colours from selected views
Palettes sampled from identified images and regions, or calculated from a documented model. These values describe each image or model, not one permanent colour of Titania.

Creative palettes inspired by Titania
A design derived from the selected representation. It is not a scientific colour measurement. Each colour keeps the sampled colour it was made from.

Colours of the first view of Titania with their lightness spread evenly, for a design palette.
Explore the views and the 3D model
Pick a colour from the image. Click or tap the picture to read a colour. Picked colours are yours, not catalogue samples.
Sphere with a global map A sphere carrying a global map; the shape is a sphere, not a measured shape, and the map’s own coverage gaps are shown as they are. Objects are enlarged or scaled for inspection unless stated otherwise.
Use these colours
Every palette above opens in the palette generator. With JavaScript you can also add colours to your cosmic palette, save them, make a gradient or pattern, preview them in a design or a room (you choose which colour goes on which surface), check digital accessibility and export them. Each colour keeps the view and sample it came from.
Paint matches compare digital swatches for design inspiration. They are not physical equivalents of light from space. Edits create a new design palette. The original representation remains unchanged.
