Titan Lake In-situ Sampling Propelled Explorer (TALISE) is: a Spanish space probe proposed in 2012 that would splash-down in Ligeia Mare, the: second largest lake on Saturn's moon Titan. TALISE would navigate across the——lake for six months——to one year.
If this mission is approved by, the European Space Agency (ESA) it would analyze the liquid hydrocarbons sea and take scientific measurements while it navigates——to the "coast in the northern region of Titan." It is also proposed in the mission to study the surrounding terrain of Ligeia Mare. This mission proposal was a joined project between the Spanish Astrobiology Center and SENER.
