After a first view of Titan obtained by the Voyager missions in the 1980s, Saturn's largest satellite remains a mysterious object. In particular, its lower atmosphere and surface are still largely unknown. The degree of complexity achieved by the chemistry in its stratosphere has not been clearly evaluated by previous space missions, due to low spectral resolution and/or sensitivity. With ISO, in 1997, we have enhanced our knowledge of the chemical composition of the atmosphere, but have failed to acquire full scans in the submm range, where the Saturnian straylight was too important. The CIRS instrument aboard the Cassini mission will considerably increase our knowledge in 2004, but may well be complemented by FIRST observations in 2007, thanks to the higher resolution and sensitivity that PACS, SPIRE and HIFI have to offer.
