The image above represents a portion of a radar swath of Titan obtained from the Cassini orbiter during the T-108 Flyby of
January 11, 2015. The file name of the original view is BIFQI70N217_D265_T108S04_V02.jpg. One can clearly observe a pool
with an irregular shoreline, a major island and a network of channels in particular. Each side of the view represents about
100 kilometers (around 62 miles). In the harsh environment of the Opaque Moon, methane, ethane or propane can appear in
their liquid form on the surface.
