Sound on Titans SURFACE???

OK, we have the sounds of the decent of Huygens, but what about the sounds
that exist on the surface?? Was this data lost in the A-channel snafu, or is
it being withheld for some reason?

What was the wind speed at ground?

SNAFU is an acronym for "typically" a military slang term "Situation Normal,
All Fouled Up or F----d up. Used when things go awry as they often do with
planned events.

I'm sorry, I misread your question. I thought you asked what SNAFU meant.
The SNAFU had something to do with a problem with one of the data
transmission channels used by the Huygens probe to send information to the
Cassini spacecraft. IIRC one of the channels was not sending data.

withheld? That's a promising start for another 'Area 51' cover up type
theory. well done!

there's always a delay between receiving data and making sense of it
though, the excitement of landing is followed by months/years of
analysis. i'm looking forward to watching it develop.

Yes, it was withheld because the sounds revealed were of tortured souls
screaming in Hell. Titan is actually Hades!

For Cripe's sakes: "is it being withheld for some reason."

Why do space exploration and conspiracy nuts go so hand-in-hand?

I'm waiting for the SMELLS of Titan. Perhaps a sensitive device on the probe
could collect the smells, send a chormographic description back to earth where
the smells could be reconstructed and used in a "scratch and sniff" photo in
Sky and Tel.
