Titan Photos and Sounds

Posted by michael on from the take-me-to-your-leader dept.

ahsile writes "NASA and the ESA have released the first images from Titan. The ESA also has available sounds from the surface." Reader ZZip writes: "Apparently a bunch of enthusiasts has compiled the first mosaics from the raw data delivered by the Huygens probe. Meanwhile space.com has more coverage and pictures from NASA/ESA." Say a silent thank-you to the persistent troubleshooters of the world, without whom none of this would be possible.

    How can the guys from ESA and NASA extract much information from blurred images?

    You obviously don't watch CSI.
