Well one of my life dreams was met this past few weeks in the Hyugens project landing on Titan and broadcasting pictures from the site. Really amazing as the world is probably more mysterious than ever despite the fact that we now have hard evidence of what it's like on the surface. The interesting parts are the idea that it's a "flammable world" with these springs and river beds all around. Now, there's still no clear evidence if indeed those streaks in the pictures are rivers. However, it has been stated that in all likelihood the planet rains and the soil is soft, like clay, helping to point to the chemistry and composition of the satellite. I'm interested in seeing what future missions we'll see. Because this has been a success, I think this will help improve chances to receive funding for future missions. The real issue to me though is finding the next form of propellent. I've read about several existing methods, but none plausibly allows us to move to the outer planets quickly and efficiently at the moment. Hopefully, these problems will be solved in the near future, but that's really a condition of the government.
