  • Oppose I'm more impressed by the methane lake image that's up at PotD next week. ~ trialsanderrors 16:46, 30 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    • The image of the methane lakes has nothing to do with this picture, other then it was taken by the Cassini Orbitor. The two images were not even taken using the same camera or wavelengths for that matter.Chris H 17:32, 30 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
