I'm surprised I have to do this..
But anyway Did anyone else hear about this? If not, what have you been doing for the lkast 24 hours? The first 3 pictures are here on the ESA site. Sadly they've lost about 350 of the 700 photos because one of the radio channels didn't work. Now we have to wait for thge colour ones!

Titan is the largest moon of Saturn. It's the one that's suppose to have an athmosphere similar to that of Earth just before life evolved (only about 180 degrees colder).
I read about it, but just the pics don't mean anything. I'm looking forward to any discoveries they make based upon that. Personally I'd rather see some shoots of Japet (that moon fascinated me ever since I read the Space Odysey 2001). |

im more interested in triton, one of neptunes moons. didnt see anything go past that since voyager 2 back in 89 or so. i could be mistaken, but i dont know.
even more interesting is europa, but i think theyve (not too soon) realised that if they put anything on there, it needs to be 100% sterile.. otherwise they will contaminate a possible ecosystem with earth bacteria. this is why they crashed a probe into jupiter when they finished with it, so it couldnt hit europa. |
