A moon with an atmosphere
That we can actually photograph.
-

Getting through that orange haze with ultraviolet and infrared camera reveals multiple atmospheric layers in false colour.

>Red and green colors represent infrared wavelengths and show areas where atmospheric methane absorbs light. These colors reveal a brighter (redder) northern hemisphere. Blue represents ultraviolet wavelengths and shows the high atmosphere and detached hazes. Titan has a gigantic atmosphere, extending hundreds of kilometers above the surface.

BUT it is so insignificant that it is virtually a vacuum.
I read that because of extremely low gravitational pulls and small mass this is the case.
