Unfortunately, Huygens can't deliver this, even if it were possible. Battery
powered only, and it's signal is relayed from orbiter passing overhead very
quickly. We'll be lucky if it survives impact at all, and if it does we'll only
get an hour or two of life.


....Which begs the question: Does Huygens have a camera on board, or
did they simply not bother in this case?
