The Titan probe landed successfully yesterday, and has started sending back data on what it's finding. I love this description of the terrain:
Data sent back by the Huygens space probe from the Saturnian moon Titan show a frozen, orange world shrouded in a methane-rich haze with dark ice rocks dotting a riverbed-like surface the consistency of wet sand, scientists said on Saturday.
Kudos to the European Space agency, Italian Space agency, and NASA for their work on this.
