Huygens release

The Huygens release from the Cassini spacecraft will happen at 3:00am Central European Time so I'll be in bed...hopefully someone out there will find the time to post some updates.

Here's the site to watch for news:

And of course the NASA site:

The European Space Agency's Huygens probe successfully detached from NASA's Cassini orbiter today to begin a three-week journey to Saturn¿s moon Titan. NASA's Deep Space Network tracking stations in Madrid, Spain and Goldstone, Calif., received the signal at 7:24 p.m. (PST). All systems performed as expected and there were no problems reported with the Cassini spacecraft.
