The current issue of Physics Today has made the content of Ralph Lorenz's article, The Changing Face of Titan, available for free at http://ptonline.aip.org.offcampus.lib.wash...;usertype=indiv. This is simply the best summary of the Cassini Titan results that I've seen so far. The context that Ralph provides also makes a strong case for prioritizing Titan as the focus of the next Flagship mission (although obliquely by emphasizing the similarities and differences between Titan and Earth).

That appears to a protected UW link, it prompts me for a UW credential when I follow it at any rate. This direct link to it at Physics Today works for me - "The Changing Face of Titan"

This direct link to it at Physics Today works for me - "The Changing Face of Titan" Thanks! For some reason, the figures shown in the html article are only partially shown (you'll need to click on each one to get the entire figure and extensive caption). The full range of all the illustrations and images can be seen in the pdf: http://link.aip.org/getpdf/servlet/GetPDFS...008000034000001 -Mike -------------------- Some higher resolution images available at my photostream: http://www.flickr.com/photos/31678681@N07/
