Cassini-Huygens Home (NASA)
This should be cool. The Cassini space probe will be passing close to Saturn's moon Titan this afternoon, and NASA should be getting some interesting photos from the encounter. Check NASA site for more details: Cassini-Huygens Home
Titan is believed to have large amounts of hydrocarbons in its atmosphere, and likely on the surface. Before you imagine a planet with gasoline oceans, think instead of the idea that the possibility of LIFE is actually rather high. It would be great if there was...unless we find some horrible way to screw things up for it. I bet Haliburton is already angling for the no-bid contract to exploit Titan's resources.
