New Titan Image: Canyonlands on Titan

The Cassini RADAR team released this view of Titan taken last week during the T7 flyby. This cutout from their SAR noodle is located near 55 degrees South, 7.5 degrees West and is approximately 300 km long. Unlike the previous image, the channels in this region consist of long valleys (up to 200 km long and 200 meters deep) that have only a few tributaries. These channels are more akin to river systems on earth rather than the arroyos seen in the T3 swath and in the previous image.
