This radar image was captured during Cassini’s most recent Titan flyby on February 22, 2007. The island is about 90 kilometers (62 miles) by 150 kilometers (93 miles) across, which is the same size as the Big Island of Hawaii.
Unlike the familar lakes here on Earth, this lake is likely filled with liquid hydrocarbons. You wouldn’t want to go swimming there.
