This view of Titan taken on Feb. 25, 2007, reveals a giant lake-like
feature in Titan's North Polar Region. It is approximately 1,100
kilometers (680 miles) long and has a surface area slightly smaller than
that of Earth's largest lake, the Caspian Sea.
The Cassini-Huygens mission is a cooperative project of NASA, the European
Space Agency and the Italian Space Agency. The Jet Propulsion Laboratory,
a division of the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, manages
the mission for NASA's Science Mission Directorate, Washington, D.C. The
Cassini orbiter and its two onboard cameras were designed, developed and
assembled at JPL. The imaging operations center is based at the Space
Science Institute in Boulder, Colo.
