I don't understand how some of you think the borg cube would win against the death star... Its a moon-sized sphere of complete planet disintegration with its own ridiculous compliment of turbolaser batteries. We aren't talking about a couple phasers pointed a the borg cube here, but instead, a planet destroyer beam and a thousand turbolasers. The borg are screwed. Hands down. I don't know why there is a question.

Liquid Lakes On Saturn's Moon Confirmed 188

Riding with Robots writes "Scientists have been using the robotic spacecraft Cassini to explore what looked to be large lakes of hydrocarbons on the surface of Saturn's planet-sized moon Titan. But they couldn't be entirely sure that the features were actually liquid lakes, and not simply very smooth, solid material. Now, new findings seem to confirm that the observations really do show extensive seas of liquid ethane and other hydrocarbons. In fact, Titan seems to have an entire 'water' cycle of ethane evaporation, rain and rivers."
