It is indeed scheduled to be broadcast on NASA TV tonight, at 2 AM to 3:30 AM Pacific time. (Please, God, let them not cut into it prematurely this time to rerun more stock Shuttle footage.)

You could be right, but I think it likely they will. After all, when the liquid component of a mud (in this case liquid methane) evaporates, the mud's overall volume decreases -- and since some of the remaining solid particles will stick to each other more strongly than others do, the entire mud sheet is bound to develop "stretch marks", aka cracks. This phenomenon isn't dependent on the unique properties of liquid water.
