Ngami Lacuna is a feature on Saturn's largest moon, Titan, believed to be a currently dry bed of an intermittent hydrocarbon lake.
When full, the lake would be composed of liquid methane and ethane.[1] It was detected in 2007 by the Cassini–Huygens space probe.
Ngami Lacuna is located at coordinates 66.7°N and 213.9°W on Titan's globe and is 37.2 kmindiameter.[2] It is named after Lake Ngami, in Botswana,[2] and like its terrestrial namesake is considered to be endorheic.
