COSMIC MESSAGE

In January 2005, the Huygens probe descended through the clouds of Saturn's moon Titan. It was the first spacecraft to land on a moon in the outer Solar System. This panoramic image shows what Huygens saw from about five kilometers above Titan's surface, a mysterious landscape shrouded in orange haze.
