Huygens Probe
The Huygens Probe is a space probe that was part of the Cassini-Huygens mission, launched by NASA and the European Space Agency in 1997. Its primary objective was to study the atmosphere and surface of Titan, Saturn's largest moon. Huygens successfully landed on Titan on January 14, 2005, providing valuable data about its composition and weather.
The probe was equipped with various scientific instruments to analyze the atmosphere and surface conditions. It discovered that Titan has a thick atmosphere and lakes of liquid methane and ethane, revealing important insights into the moon's potential for prebiotic chemistry and its unique environment.
