All jokes aside, we are about to be treated to the first otherworldly
recording courtesy of the planetary probe Huygens probe launched from the Cassini Saturn orbiter. Apparently the Russians put a microphone on a Venus probe in the seventies, but they didn't get much. From Wired article: "We are going to hear what Titan sounds like," said Lebretton. "There is a simple microphone on board, but it should be able to collect sound -- for example, if there is lightning, we will hear it. We may also detect sounds due to winds." http://www.wired.com/news/space/0,26...w=wn_tophead_1 More reading available he http://www.esa.int/SPECIALS/Cassini-...K30A90E_0.html Which all of course begs the question: What is your favorite microphone for large gaseous planetoids? /Magnus |
