Andyr Posted January 14, 2005 Share Posted January 14, 2005 In case you didn't know, the Huygens probe earlier today got to Saturn's moon Titan! Images and stuff are being posted on the ESA website at http://www.esa.int so go there. Amazing stuff. Link to comment
BigRob Posted January 15, 2005 Share Posted January 15, 2005 There's a microphone on the probe too, so they're supposed to get sound as well. Apparently the first time sound from another world has been heard. Link to comment

Andyr Posted January 15, 2005 Author Share Posted January 15, 2005 Rob: Sound is now up, as is a colour pic. Link to comment
BigRob Posted January 17, 2005 Share Posted January 17, 2005 Sweet, thanks! *scuttles off to Huygens website* ... The descent sounded much as I expected (Hey, orbital re-entry probably sounds the same everywhere). There's a website here: http://planetary.org/sounds/huygens_sounds.html that's been helping to process the sounds for the Huygens team and they've got some additional clips. Link to comment
