Caption NASA:"Peering through Titan's thick haze, the Cassini spacecraft glimpses boundaries between bright and dark terrain on the moon's Trailing Hemisphere.
The bright terrain at bottom is in North-Western Adiri.
North on Titan is up and rotated about 15 degrees to the right.
This view was created by combining multiple images taken using a combination of spectral filters sensitive to wavelengths of infrared light centered at 938 and 619 nanometers. Some processing artifacts remain in the finished image, including the two small, dark circles below and right of center.
The images were taken with the Cassini spacecraft narrow-angle camera on May 13, 2007 at a distance of approx. 237.000 Km (about 147.000 miles) from Titan. Image scale is roughly 3 Km per pixel. Due to scattering of light by Titan's hazy atmosphere, the sizes of surface features that can be resolved are a few times larger than the actual pixel scale".
