The Waves On Titan Are Missing

This is a fascinating video about the huge moon Titan.  Apparently its composition should lead to a different liquid formation than we would expect to see on its surface:

Saturn’s giant moon Titan is dotted with hydrocarbon lakes and seas that bear an uncanny resemblance to bodies of water on Earth. Strangely, though, Titan’s lakes and seas have no waves.

Do you have any theories on why this is the case?  Is it gravitational in nature or maybe another factor influencing these unusual properties on the surface such as the temperature?  NASA has a really interesting theory.

Let’s find out more with some visuals in the video on page 2
