Investigators suspect the domed feature detailed above is an ice volcano, or cryovolcano, seen in infrared light through the hazy atmosphere on Saturn’s moon Titan (Image: USGS/JPL/NASA) This pair of images covers part of Hotei Arcus, an infrared-bright and possibly time-variable feature that has been hypothesized to be cryovolcanic, based on the presence of flow-like features in the radar images. The data shows that these flows are 100 to 200 metres (300 to 600 feet) thick (Image: VIMS Team/U. Arizona/ESA/NASA)
