Happy New Year!

I would like to draw your attention to the next programme in the
Stardate series - "Mission to Titan". This will be broadcast LIVE on
BBC2 at 23.30 on Friday 14th January and will feature the latest
images from the Huygens probe, which will have landed on Saturn's
moon, Titan, earlier that day.


It's worth noting that the actual landing is about 12 hours earlier, and
Open2.net has a competition to guess the exact time of the landing (this
was posted on alt.astronomy)
http://www.open2.net/astronomy/stardate3competition.html.
According to
http://www.esa.int/SPECIALS/Cassini-Huygens/SEMXYGQ3K3E_0.html the
first data is expected at 16.24 CET.
And according to
http://www.nasa.gov/multimedia/nasatv/MM_NTV_Breaking.html, NASA TV is
showing live coverage of the landing.
