Titan's a good call ... and you get the protection of Saturn's magnetic field.

Ceres is bloody cold, and pretty small. You'd have a better shot with our moon.

Nobody on this planet knows about what Ceres actually is made of, I agree. But look at its tactical position in this solar system. This position is clearly optimised by something or someone, I believe.
