Hi All

Titan Coast

...I know I'm prejudicing the interpretation but it just looks like a coast shot next to a huge (cryo)volcanic outflow. Titan is gob-smackingly amazing!

PS
The Grinspoon preprint I posted earlier suggests that a major heating source for Titan's geology is biochemistry - there's enough acetylene raining from the sky to melt the place (C2H2 +3H2 => 2CH4) and replace methane lost via photolysis in the process.
