From Martin Frey on uk.sci.astronomy
This just dropped into my email from Natalia Clarke of Screenhouse
(production company for the Beeb)
Happy New Year!
I would like to draw your attention to the next programme in the
Stardate series - "Mission to Titan". This will be broadcast LIVE on
BBC2 at 23.30 on Friday 14th January and will feature the latest
images from the Huygens probe, which will have landed on Saturn's
moon, Titan, earlier that day.
As part of the show, we will have a live Question & Answer session
with 3 scientists who have been closely involved in the mission:
Prof John Zarnecki - the Principle Investigator who has dedicated 17
years of his life to work on the instrument that will try to figure
out the characteristics of Titan's surface
Prof Marty Tomasko - The Principle Investigator on the Huygens imaging
team. He's hoping to create fantastic panoramas of Titan's surface,
which has never before been seen, because of the thick orange haze
blanketing the satellite.
Dr. Athena Coustenis - A Titan expert, who also works on the Huygens
atmospheric structure instrument.
To put a question forward, go to

and click on "Ask an
Astronomer" at the bottom of the page.
Please feel free to forward this to any other members of your
astronomy society who may be interested.
We hope you enjoy the show!
Kind regards,
Natalia
