[QUOTE="Channel Hopper, post: 89099, member: 175144"] You forget that the final images are actully combined photos , and there are many of them. [url]http://esamultimedia.esa.int/docs/titanraw/index.htm[/url] And as you say, its seven year old technology thats been fired from a rocket, got accelerated by the gravitational trajectory, spent rather a long time in cold space, suffered a lot of solar radiation, even more magnetic radiation effects, and finally flew through the rings of Saturn, to be decelerated in a swingby of some 15g, before plummeting down into a highly nasty atmosphere. I think they did rather well [/QUOTE]
