Huygens-Down-02.jpgHuygens' Descent to Titan: 100 Km from the Surface (credits: R. Pascal)57 visiteThe true color of Titan's Sky at this altitude is expected to be slighly less vivid than in this rendering, but should nevertheless come close to it. The transparency of the atmosphere would also be slightly lower to the naked eye. MareKromium

Huygens-Down-00.jpgHuygens' Descent to Titan: 115 Km from the Surface (credits: R. Pascal)57 visiteThe Huygens Probe just jettisoned its Main-parachute and is now hanging under the smaller Stabiliser-parachute. This Stabiliser-parachute will carry Huygens for the next two hours all the way down to the Surface of Titan. MareKromium

Enceladus-IMG003035.jpgNot for Human Eyes... (by Karl Kofoed)56 visiteCaption NASA:"In this artist's rendering, a distant Sun forms a halo (refracted sunlight by ice crystals) amid streamers of pure water ice particles, which spew into space from cracks in the South Polar surface of Saturn's tiny moon Enceladus".

Huygens-Down-01.jpgHuygens' Descent to Titan: 110 Km from the Surface (credits: R. Pascal)56 visiteThe haze of Titan's Atmosphere preferently scatters blue and UltraViolet light: this is the reason why the Outer Atmosphere of Titan appears blue in some Cassini images. In reality, the effect of a blue outer atmosphere on Titan may be less prominent than on this rendered image.
This was the altitude were the main parachute was jettisoned and first surface structures came into view for Huygens' cameras.MareKromium

Huygens-Down-05.jpgHuygens' Descent to Titan: 70 Km from the Surface (credits: R. Pascal)56 visiteAt an altitude of about 70 Km above the Surface, Huygens is inside the layer of complex organic condensate haze. Below that layer, the view becomes clearer. MareKromium
