On December 25, 2004, Huygens detached itself from Cassini and fell toward Titan. Because Titan has a substantial atmosphere, the probe was equipped with a heat shield and parachutes for the descent. On touchdown it made history as the first landing ever achieved on a body in the outer Solar System.</p> <div style="width: 530px; height: 153px; margin-bottom: 1px;" class="article_img"><a href="/web/20130330045002/http://www.gizmag.com/nasa-huygens-titan-animation/25846/pictures#21" target="_blank"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130330045002im_/http://images.gizmag.com/inline/huygens-21.jpg" width="530" alt="Panoramic view of Huygens' landing site (Image: ESA)"/></a></div><div class="inline_caption" style="width: 530px; padding: 0;"><p>Panoramic view of Huygens' landing site (Image: ESA)</p></div><div class="clear_both"></div> <p>With only 153 minutes of battery life, which had to cover the descent as well as landing, Huygens had only about 30 minutes of power for exploration.
