Cassini-Huygens probe in orbit


Recommended Posts

Too cool for words, my father thought he'd never see this stuff happen in his lifetime but here we are, the exploration of the 'real' Saturn region with ultra close-up shots to boot.

They've released some audio from Huygens descent as well. The first clip plays the sound of Titan's winds brushing against the mic. Very cool to be able to hear that, coming from another world... The second one is a converted radar echo stream. That one starts to sounds a bit like 'Stunt Car Racer' from my old C64

Agreed I never thought I'd ever hear real sounds from another planet. Very cool. Now if only they had put speaker systems on the probe to be able to yell out "ANYONE HOME!!". The first human voice to speak on another planet.

That first color pic of Titan looks a heck of a lot like Mars. Are they sure they landed on the right planet

OK SC, now we have sounds from outer Space, now that would be cool to add to UC, wanna land on Titan, listen to the ACTUAL sounds of landing on Titan...LOL
