 You know the game - pick a square - tell us what it is - and if Huygens lands in your square - you win absolutely NOTHING  The lines coincide roughtly with lines of lat and long ( see the big maps elsewhere for that ) - and so it is the lat and long which will be released in the next few weeks I'm sure - that will pick the winner Reply with your pick - and dont pick one that's already gone. I'll try and update it with names etc later Doug |
