Cassini-Huygens

This morning(after 7+ year, 2.2 billion mile trip) the Huygens probe landed on Titan, which probably one of the greatest human achievements to date.Titan is thought to be similar to an early Earth, data from this mission could tell us alot about how life started here on Earth and how common life supporting planets are around the universe.They have raw pics out now, but I can't wait to see the processed images.This probe had a microphone as well, I think it will be cool to hear another world.Best part about it, the US didn't pay for it all.
