Descent to Titan

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

The Huygens probe made the most distant landing ever by a spacecraft from Earth, descending to Titan's surface. It entered the atmosphere at 180 kilometers altitude, then deployed parachutes for a two-hour descent. Radio astronomers detected signals from the probe as it landed on Saturn's large moon.
