Leeched from Astronomy Picture of the Day website, always a source for pictures from the mildly interesting to the absolutely stunning.

This depicts the Huygens probe, which will be released by the Cassini spacecraft as it passes Titan in 2004. Perhaps this is what Saturn will look like from Titan. As you can tell from the haze on the horizon, Titan has an atmosphere.

Larger version available here.

(BTW, how do I get to include a visible pic in my post?)
