Small moon, or Death Star? |

Cassini sent back the first clear, detailed pictures of Saturn's moon,
Iapetus. The moon has a "bulge" of some sort that makes a circle around
the moon, almost exactly around its equator. The picture (second link)
shows a giant, ancient impact crater in the northern hemisphere that
creates a remarkable similarity to the Death Star. That, too, was
described as being the size of a small moon.
Even more interesting is that 40 years ago, Arthur C. Clarke placed
Iapetus as the location of the Monolith, not Europa (Kubrick, with
Clarke's ok, placed his monolith around Jupiter because Kubrick could
not get the Saturn special effects to look right. Clarke kept Jupiter in
latter books.) With a growing list of oddities, I wonder if maybe Clarke
got it right the first time....

"The President is merely the most important among a large number
of public servants. He should be supported or opposed exactly to
the degree which is warranted by his good conduct or bad conduct,
his efficiency or inefficiency in rendering loyal, able, and
disinterested service to the Nation as a whole. Therefore it is
absolutely necessary that there should be full liberty to tell
the truth about his acts, and this means that it is exactly
necessary to blame him when he does wrong as to praise him when
he does right. Any other attitude in an American citizen is both
base and servile. To announce that there must be no criticism of
the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or
wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable
to the American public. Nothing but the truth should be spoken about
him or any one else. But it is even more important to tell the truth,
pleasant or unpleasant, about him than about any one else."

Those impact craters are fucking HUGE!! Not just the one that you're looking
straight into, but especially the one closer to the equator, near the
dark-light (day-night?) horizon on the right.

They all appear to be impact craters, although a few have had landslides since
the craters were created by debris crashing. Given how dirty the neighborhood is,
it would be astonishing if there weren't craters.

Nah, there have been far more bizarre examples, even on our planet. I
don't know how many funny cactuses and rock formations I've seen, but
they're too numerous to count. In a universe as large as ours, a world
as large, a solar system etc. you're almost bound to run into stuff
that looks like other stuff - due simply to human imagination and a
tendeancy to put two and two together and compare.

A fairly even "bulge" almost perfectly aligned around the equator of a
tidally locked, airless moon is pretty bizzare, no doubt. This isn't just
a matter of a grilled cheese sandwich with a toasted patch that looks like
the Virgin Mary.

Yeah, it's that equator thing that's freaky. It's like the seam of a badly
assembled model.
Here's my list of questions:
How wide is the distribution of the ring material? It looks razor thin.
Is the equator of the moon aligned closely with the axis of the rings.
Could the ridge along the equator be related to the accretion of, or
collision with, ring material?
The problem with my hypothesis is that you would expect to see the same
effect on other moons.

Maybe Iapetus is an enormous walnut.

Clarke is an amazing fellow; practically invented the communications

gotten a patent. I sometimes wonder if he doesn't know a little
_too_ much. <Queue conspiracy theory>
