Strong and persistent signals from the surface

As of now -- 14:04 GMT -- the Huygens signal is continuing strong, it's been on the surface more than an hour. In another hour the Cassini will 'set' and stop receiving the science data, but the direct signal may continue to be monitored somewhat longer.

        Maybe loss of the A channel saved the power used to transmit on that frequency - alcaray - 1/14/2005 5:23:05 PM
