Cassini took a few pictures of the Huygens lander two days after (Dec. 27) it was released from the main probe on Dec. 25, 2004 to check on its trajectory, which was found to be correct within the expected error range. This is one of them, more exposed on the left and less exposed on the right (click for full res):
It's not too impressive, but I found it neat LMK if this isn't the right place to post this or if it should be posted in an existing thread - sorry if that's the case! -------------------- |
