Voyages to the Outer Solar System
The Voyager spacecraft that toured through the giant planets of the Solar System, Jupiter's Galileo orbiter and the Cassini-Huygens mission to Saturn and Titan have given us wonderful views of these most beautiful planets and shown us, in Titan, a world that is surprisingly like our Earth - but at - 180° Celcius!
Ian Morison is an astronomer and astrophysicist who served as the 35th Gresham Professor of Astronomy.
