NASA’s Cassini spacecraft deployed a lander called Huygens to Titan’s moon December 25, 2004, a European spacecraft that moved on a trip to the Saturn system in the Cassini spacecraft. which begins its work before entering Titan’s atmosphere.
According to the “Space” website, after Huygens separated from the Cassini spacecraft, it took three weeks to descend to the surface of Titan, one of Saturn’s moons, and he landed on January 14, 2005.
The spacecraft spent two and a half hours skydiving through Titan’s atmosphere and transmitting data to Cassini, which beamed it back to Earth.
Huygens sent the data after landing and for another hour and a half before the batteries ran out, Huygens’ data and images revealed that Titan is one of the most Earth-like places in the solar system.
The moon has a thick atmosphere made of nitrogen and methane, and is covered in lakes of liquid methane, Huygens has even found organic molecules on Titan.
Scientists now believe Titan may be the best place to look for life in the solar system.
