Harland Pages: 403 Publisher: Springer Publication date: 2007 Language: English Format: PDF ISBN-10: 038726129X ISBN-13: Description: Cassini At Saturn - Huygens Resultsnbsp;brings the story of the Cassini-Huygens mission and their joint exploration of the Saturnian system right up to date. Cassininbsp;entered orbit around Saturnnbsp;Junenbsp;2004 so this update includesnbsp;8 months of scientific data available for review, including the most spectacular images of Saturn, its rings and satellites ever obtained by a space mission. As the Cassini spacecraft approached its destination in spring 2004, the quality of the images already being returned by the spacecraft clearly demonstrated the spectacular nature of the close-range views that will be obtained. The booknbsp;contains a 16-page colour section, comprising a carefully chosen selection of the most stunning images to be released during the spacecraft's initial period of operation. The Huygens craft, released by Cassini, parachuted through the clouds of Saturn's largest moon, Titan, in January 2005. David Harlandnbsp;tells the exciting story of the this craft's journey to the surface of one of the most enigmatic bodies on the Solar System, the only moon to have a dense atmosphere and possibly lakes of liquid gas at -190°C on its surface. Titan is considered to be an early Earth in deep freeze, possibly with the building blocks of life in its atmosphere. There will undoubtedly be enormous interest in the first results and images of Titan's surface, andnbsp;this book isnbsp;the firstnbsp;incisive summary of this groundbreaking material.
