What's up with those mountains on Iapetus?
That smooth unbroken continuous hill just looks weird. See for example

The moon was actually injection-molded. 9. The hill is the remains of an ancient alien rail-gun launcher. 8. Iapetus, in a fit of sibling jealousy, has attempted to grow its own rings. 7. Percival Lowell accidentally based his sketches on the wrong planet. 6. This is the planet from Kim Stanley Robinson's "A Short, Sharp Shock", without the oceans. 5. The moon was tectonically separated aeons ago from Vallis Marineris. 4. This is the solar system's frenulum. 3. Ringworld deorbited here. 2. Not much, just loosening its belt after the holidays. and.. 1. That's No Moon... -- Ben Weiss | Any technology distinguishable from magic President & CTO | is insufficiently advanced.
