Wissenschaftler verwirrt durch fehlende Küstenmerkmale auf Titan, Saturns größter Mond

Ugh… Space.com ad cancer. Here is a clean [article/press release from Brown University](https://www.brown.edu/news/2025-04-18/titan), including this rather important bit that the Space com article doesn’t:

>It’s not entirely clear why Titan generally lacks deltas, Birch says. The fluid properties of Titan’s rivers should make them perfectly capable of carrying and depositing sediment. It could be, the researchers say, that sea levels on Titan rise and fall so rapidly that deltas are smeared across the landscape more quickly than they can be built up in a single spot. Winds and tidal currents along Titan’s coasts may also play an equally large role in preventing delta formation.
