South Polar "Tropospheric Cloud Streaks" (Natural Colors; credits: Lunar Explorer Italia)
Caption NASA:"The Tropospheric Clouds seen in the lower left of the image are located at 45 to 55° South Latitude on Titan, and the streaks of the clouds are oriented East-West.
This view looks toward the South Pole of Titan. The South Pole lies near the Terminator about a quarter of the way inward from the Planet's limb at the bottom of this image. Lit terrain seen here is on the Leading Hemisphere of Titan.

This image was taken with the Cassini spacecraft narrow-angle camera on March 24, 2009 using a spectral filter sensitive to wavelengths of near-InfraRed Light centered at 938 nanometers. The view was obtained at a distance of approx. 1.1 MKM (about 684.000 miles) from Titan and at a Sun-Titan-Spacecraft, or Phase, Angle of 78°. Image scale is 7 Km (a little more than 4 miles) per pixel".
