Far-off cousin of part-time African lake found on Titan

(PresseBox) (Paris, )
A region on Saturn's moon Titan has been found to be similar to the Etosha Pan in Namibia, Africa. Both are ephemeral lakes - large, shallow depressions that sometimes fill with liquid.

Ontario Lacus is the largest lake in the southern hemisphere of Saturn's moon, Titan. It is a little smaller than its namesake, Lake Ontario in North America, but otherwise differs from it in some major ways.

It is filled with liquid hydrocarbons, not water, and it is only a few metres deep at most, located in an extremely shallow depression in a flat sedimentary basin, surrounded by jsput aaqjnkkt ckmakt.
