The mountains on Saturn's moon Titan are all named after mountains in J.R.R. Tolkien's stories of Middle-Earth. For example Titan's Doom Mons is named after Mount Doom from Lord of the Rings.
For real? That's awesome! Wow Mr. Tolkien can say something that not too many people can say: "I have mountains on far-away moons named after mountains in my books". Damn.
You must be one smart fellow with all the information you share. Most interesting. Adam, the fact you took the time to write me a nice letter while I was sick, meant more to me than I can ever to tell you. You are a very special young man. Not many would to that. Thank you again for your kindness.

I didn't know any of this. Nice to learn more.
They all look like the Misty Mountains to me! A rather splendid piece of trivia.
