European Probe Lands on Saturn's Moon

Too bad they didn't send it to Uranus.

Makes a much funnier headline

Good news. Problem though is that they were aiming for Neptune's moons.

Officials were optimistic because Huygens was designed to transmit for at least three minutes after landing before its batteries died and the signal had continued for more than five hours.

I wonder what else the designers missed by such a margin.

I'm sure that someone will know what to do with information about Titanic winds. Is it worth it?

...a project of NASA, ESA and the Italian space agency, was launched Oct. 15, 1997, from Cape Canaveral, Fla....

And it's called "A European space probe?"

Huygens is shaped like a wok and covered with a shield to survive the intense heat of entry.

I don't know, just struck me as kind of funny.

A European space probe landed safely on the surface of Saturn's moon Titan on Friday, a space official said,
buoying hopes the mission would produce data that could shed light on the origins of life on Earth.
Euro-pagans.
