I was watching the History Channel and they had talked about Saturn's moon and how it has many resemblances to what Earth had in its younger years. Could that possibly mean that Titan can become maybe livable or similar to what Earth is now?
 
Not without terraforming of a kind unknown to humans now. It's far too cold at the moment. If it heated up enough, which might eventually happen when the sun expands towards the end of its life, its gravity would be too low to hold on to the water and other volatiles of which it consists because they would be too light, so most of it would evaporate into space and it would turn into a rather Moon-like small ball of rock with no appreciable atmosphere.
