Images taken during Cassini's second close approach to Titan in December 2004 have captured detailed views of the moon's intermittent clouds.

The clouds seen here are at about 38 degrees south latitude on Titan. The clouds across the middle of the frame extend about 250 kilometers (155 miles). The image scale is about .6 kilometers (.4 miles) per pixel.
