Mile High, 100 mile long mountain range on Titan

The Cassini space probe took photo graphs of some very large mountains on Saturn's moon, Titan. Early indications are that the mountains were formed by volcanic activity - at least that's what the AP article says, I suspect plate tectonics myself - but I will accept the AP article for now.
