First ‘Best-Guess’ View of Huygens Landing Site

A view of Huygens' probable landing site based on initial, best-guess
estimates. Scientists on the Huygens Descent Imager/ Spectral Radiometer
(DISR) science team are still working to refine the exact location of the
probe's landing site, but they estimate that it lies within the white circle
shown in this image.

The Descent Imager/Spectral Radiometer is one of two NASA instruments on the probe.

The Cassini-Huygens mission is a cooperative project of NASA, the European Space Agency and the Italian Space Agency. The Jet Propulsion Laboratory, a division of the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, manages the Cassini-Huygens mission for NASA's Science Mission Directorate, Washington, D.C. The Cassini orbiter and its two onboard cameras were designed, developed and assembled at JPL. The Descent Imager/Spectral team is based at the University of Arizona, Tucson, Ariz.
