Hiya Paul P --

Glad you liked looking down as you landed on Titan! Ain't that one wild ride? Imagine what it felt like for the mission controllers at ESA who watched it the first time, second by second, meter by meter.

Meanwhile, you have neglected to answer my nosy questions about Random Numbers used by internet casinos. So as your punishment, also turn the sound ON, and I send you here:

This very afternoon I sat in sheer amazement and watched this vid not only once but twice in one go ! ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT ! I thought this was the descent in real time, only to find out later that this was compressed from a few hours of material. Not just brilliant as scientific achievement, but sound and sight.. I know this will upset you, but John Cage would have loved it, especially when you got surround sound like me....

Humanity may be full of whatsname, but we also have achieved things like this. So humkanity cant be all full of whatsname.

How did you find that ? I for one was unable to locate tha clip on te NASA Cassini-Huygens site.

i found it from my deeply committed thorough study of the space sciences.

well ... actually i was clicking on my mp3 d/l site seeqpod, and seeqpod was down for maintenance, but said: While waiting, click here. And there it was.

look ... i can't help myself ... robots just do much better in space exploration than humans. and when you blow up a robot, the whole space program doesn't have a 2-year setback. nobody declares a national day of mourning when a battery-powered tin can dies.
