NASA's Cassini Image: Titan's Ligeia Mare - Second largest liquid lake

Ligeia Mare represents the second largest known body of liquid on Saturn's moon, Titan, shown here in a false-colour image obtained by NASA's Cassini mission. 

Ligeia Mare contains liquid hydrocarbons, such as ethane and methane, and makes up one of the many seas and lakes located in Titan's north polar region. 

The image consists of a false-colour mosaic of synthetic aperture radar images obtained by the Cassini spacecraft between February 2006 and April 2007. 

In this image, liquids, dark to the radar, appear black and the solid surface of Titan, which appears bright to the radar, appears yellow.
