Space Missions: Titan Atmosphere

Scientific paper

The Huygens Probe is the ESA contribution to the joint ESA-NASA Cassini/Huygens interplanetary mission aiming at the study of the Saturnian system. The Huygens Probe will fly, as a passenger of Cassini, the NASA spacecraft, to Saturn where it will be released for entry in the atmosphere of Titan, the largest satellite of Saturn. During the controlled descent phase, on-board experiments will execute a complex sequence of measurements to study the chemical and physical properties of this atmosphere, and, in case of impact survival, will collect data to study Titan surface properties. This paper introduces the ground system infrastructure, the procedures and the constraints necessary to operate the Huygens mission safely over its very long duration.
