Huygens forceert doorbraak ruimtevaart


Na zeven jaar reizen zal ruimtesonde Huygens door de oranje wolken neerdalen op Titan, een maan van Saturnus.

In meerdere opzichten een bijzondere missie. Allereerst, zover is de mensheid nog niet in de ruimte gekomen. NASA en ESA werken samen. En last but not least. De sonde is vernoemd naar Nederlands grootste geleerde; Christiaan Huygens (NL: 1629-1695)

"The ESA Huygens probe will be the first to land on a world in the outer Solar System - on the surface of Titan, Saturn’s largest moon. Data from Cassini and Huygens may offer clues about how life began on Earth."(ESA)
