Titan

The Huygens mission to Titan, a mystical moon of Saturn, is making the scientific community just step back and stare in awe. The physics of the planet are much like our own, but much different. Methane rain falling on hills of ice is the stuff of legends. It shows how intricate and complex the universe is - and how unique Earth is in giving us the climate and temperature that carbon-based life needs for survival. What a magnificent creation, bespeaking the magnificence of its Creator!
