Titan Has Liquid Lakes, Scientists Report in Nature

Scientists report definitive evidence of the presence of lakes filled with liquid methane on Saturn's moon Titan in this week's journal Nature cover story. The discovery revealed about 75 lakes on this exotic world – lakes with shorelines and maybe even waves. Unlike those on Earth, Titan's lakes are probably filled with liquid methane and ethane.
