=== Lakes of Titan === {{Main|Lakes of Titan}} <!---[[File:Titan North Pole Lakes PIA08630.jpg|left|thumb|[[Lakes of Titan]]]]---> [[File:PIA09184 -Titan Sea and Lake Superior.jpg|right|thumb|[[Ligeia Mare]], on the left, is compared at scale to [[Lake Superior]].]] [[File:PIA18430-SaturnMoon-Titan-EvolvingFeature-20140821.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.364|[[Titan (moon)|Titan]]: evolving feature in [[Ligeia Mare]] (August 21, 2014)]] Radar images obtained on July 21, 2006, appear to show lakes of [[liquid hydrocarbon]] (such as [[methane]] and [[ethane]]) in Titan's northern latitudes. This is the first discovery of currently existing lakes anywhere besides on Earth. The lakes range in size from one to one-hundred kilometers across.<ref name=NASA-20110705/> On March 13, 2007, the [[Jet Propulsion Laboratory]] announced that it had found strong evidence of seas of methane and ethane in the northern hemisphere of Titan. At least one of these is larger than any of the [[Great Lakes]] in North America.<ref name=NASA-20070313/>
