So when the alien conquerers arrive, who've been signalled as to our bugeoning space abilities by Huygens landing on Titan, we'll have the euros to blame.

Touchdown apparently confirmed 3PM GMT... apparently another hour for first data link (16:15 Euro time?).

Been looking forward to this... I really, really would like it to be a success.

They've decoded the first data and there's a message that reads

"Earthmen, give us your womin"

Obviously this message is from a primitive race that can't spell. More to follow as the data is decoded.

This one is all Europes. Good job guys! I hope this gives the ESA incentive to get more into space and challenge NASA and FSA (russia). Mars Express was a test.

Agreed. ESA should pwn in scientific discovery, not just in the commercial sector.

I agree. ESA could really challenge NASA. Europe has the resources and moreall, europe has a supporting public that NASA does not have. They would make sure these missions get off the ground and no scrapped.

NASA really hasnt really lead the way since the cold war. In fact these last 14 years have been really bad activity wise, for NASA. So much more could of done after the cold war. I can count on one hand the missions that NASA did the last 15 years that are worth mentioning. Not that im knocking NASA. It just seems they slacked off since the commies fell.

Huygens is somewhat of a sidekick in the Cassini mission.
The spacecraft itself has lots of additional flybies planned.
