Titan's Liquid Surface?
This radar image of the surface of Saturn's moon Titan shows a striking bright feature stretching from upper left to lower right, with connected 'arms' to the East. The brighter lower edges of the features are consistent with the structure being raised above the relatively featureless darker background. Comparisons with other features and data from other instruments will help researchers determine whether this is a cryovolcanic flow, where water-rich liquid has welled up from Titan's warm interior.
