These two images show clouds over the South Pole of Titan, Saturn's largest moon. The clouds are white and appear near the bottom of each image. These clouds are probably made of ethane, though some of Titan's clouds are methane. The images were captured by the Cassini spacecraft on October 26, 2004.
