Here is a site with links to "open source," "amateur composed" images of Titan.
Just keep in mind that the greatest threat to human existence comes from Titan. (By the way, the link leads to a blog that features a nifty picture of Darren McGavin as "Kolchak.")
On a closely related note, here is a site commemorating the Heinlein Trust Prize congradulating the Cassini-Huygens Mission Team. The site observes:
Huygens probe had landed on the Titan surface. No Puppet Masters so far...
According to the site:
The Heinlein Prize honors the memory of Robert A. Heinlein, a renowned American author. Both Robert and his wife Virginia were strong advocates of human advancement into space through commercial endeavors. The purpose of the Heinlein Prize is to encourage and reward progress in commercial space activities that advances their dream of humanity's future in space.
The Heinlein Prize Trust will present a substantial award to the individual or individuals who achieve practical accomplishments in the field of commercial space activities.
Winners will receive a medallion, a diploma and a monetary award. The first Heinlein Prize award has been set by the Trustees at $500,000.
Interesting.
