i recently finished reading Kurt Vonnegut's second novel, The Sirens of Titan. overall, an enjoyable read. i like how vonnegut plays with words and patterns and patterns of words so nonchalantly. it feels like an efficiently written story, deceivingly simple, yet so much happens throughout!
it seems fitting that just as i finish reading this book, NASA published a new video, Approaching Titan a Billion Times Closer, in honor of the Huygens probe touching down on Titan, ten years ago this month!
titan is saturn's largest moon and the only moon in the solar system with a dense atmosphere. the video shows a collection of images taken by the cassini spacecraft and then images from huygens, as it fell down to the surface of titan in 2005.
