After that last comic, I of course had to draw the follow-up--the spectacular landing of the Huygens craft on Titan! This was such an incredible achievement as the first landing in the outer Solar System. I'm just kinda bummed out that I missed it when it was happening because I was in high school at the time, and too busy with terrible friendships and pretending like video games solved everything to pay adequate attention to really awesome stuff like this.
But at least I can re-live the excitement vicariously through my buddy Chris Lintott, who was at ESA headquarters reporting on the landing for The Sky at Night and adorably lost all composure when the signal started coming through. Journalism at its finest.
