Engadget has an amusing blurb about the Cassini-Huygens spacecraft which is currently orbiting Saturn.
Interesting fact: Cassini has a DVD record of 616,400 handwritten signatures from 81 countries around the globe, including the mission’s namesakes, Jean-Dominique Cassini and Christiaan Huygens, lifted from 17th-century letters. We kinda wonder what region encoding they put on that and if it’s CSS’d so that there won’t be any aliens bootlegging it.
