12 Years Later, Scientists Remember Epic Landing on Saturn Moon Titan

20 years ago today, ESA's Huygens probe gave us jaw-dropping views of the surface of Saturn's hazy moon, Titan, as it became the first probe to land on a world in the outer solar system. Descending through the thick yellow atmosphere for about three hours, it revealed surprisingly Earth-like landforms. ▶️ Extract of video by ESA/NASA/JPL/University of Arizona built from Huygens probe data.
