APOD - Titan Touchdown: Huygens Descent Movie

https://youtu.be/msiLWxDayuA?si=NXK_30kK1o1Y0Em8

What would it look like to land on Saturn's moon Titan? The European Space Agency's Huygens probe set down on the Solar System's cloudiest moon in 2005, and a time-lapse video of its descent images was created.

One of my favorite achievements from a space agency. I hope we can return back to the Saturnian system with more landing probes!
