	Discovery Channel :: News - Space :: Cassini Finds Sand Dunes on Saturn Moon
		Though much of Titan's terrain remains unknown, a recent flyby of the moon by Cassini showed about 20 percent of 1.8-million kilometers (1.1-million miles) of ground imaged in radar are covered in massive dunes.
		Scientists suspect the bits of matter carried and deposited by Titan's winds are hydrocarbon materials that have fallen from the sky, similar to snowfall on Earth.
		The dunes on Titan are virtually identical in shape, size and inclination to sand dunes in Namibia and Saudi Arabia, the scientists said.

	Vonnegut: The Sirens of Titan
		They land on Titan, where Rumfoord has established a kind of permanent residence from which he runs the affairs of the Earth with the help of a robot called Salo, who comes from a faraway planet called Tralfamadore.
		The Sirens of Titan is naïve literature in every way possible, since it is a formulaic type (science fiction), employs formulaic characters, episodes, themes, properties, and settings, and is written in a remarkably simple style that, though not particularly formulaic, nevertheless includes evidence of formulaic epithets and phrase-tags.
		It has become apparent, that The Sirens of Titan is neither a straightforward science fiction novel nor a parody of science fiction,12 but that it rather uses the conventions of the genre as a vehicle for other ends which could be broadly described as satiric.

		At least for the dunes of Russell Crater, however, the researchers conclude that: "liquid water may be stable over a limited period around noon/early afternoon in late spring/early summer under current climatic conditions," --and likely within the last thousand years.
		The close-up images are taken from a 3 kilometer patch (1.8 miles), on the downslope side of a dune in Russell Crater [in the Southern Hemisphere, 54.5 S and 12.7 E].
		Based on the lack of small craters in the dune fields, the team estimates its surface age at 100 to 10,000 years--a recent soil pattern.

		Titan's dune-building breeze, he notes, is estimated to have a speed of only half a meter a second (about a mile an hour).
		Instead their direction fluctuates during Titan's orbital cycle, producing long, streamer-like dunes pointing in the direction that, on average, is downwind.
		One explanation for why dunes are found on the equator but not farther north, Lorenz says, is that Titan's winds appear to converge on the equator.

	Titan's Dunes -- 312 (5774): 653a -- Science
		The height of the dunes is about 150 meters, and they occur in regions up to 1500 by 200 kilometers in extent, especially near the equator.
		The east-west alignment of the dunes and other flow features suggest that they form from the actions of easterly surface winds.
		The presence of dunes indicates that processes create sand-sized particles, and that Titan's equatorial surface lacks persistent liquids that would otherwise trap the sand.

		The first SAR images from Titan were extremely difficult to interpret because no obvious topographic features were visible, but "we can finally see topography," said Soderblom with evident relief.
		What these data illustrate is the extreme diversity of Titan's surface and the large number of processes that are at play on that surface, from winds, to the action of liquids, to the possibility of volcanism involving warm ice or liquid ammonia-water.
