<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#eaeaea size=2>(CNN) -- The Huygens probe is
plunging through the orange clouds of Saturn's moon Titan, and scientists hope
to soon have their first glimpse of the mysterious moon.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#eaeaea></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#eaeaea size=2>Scientists early Friday said all
appeared to be going well with the saucer-shaped probe as it entered the thick
atmosphere of Titan.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#eaeaea></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#eaeaea size=2>"The baby is alive," one mission
scientist said after the probe sent a radio signal to Earth once it had begun
its descent.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#eaeaea></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#eaeaea size=2>Data from the probe should start
trickling in to mission control about 10:13 a.m. ET (1513 GMT).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#eaeaea></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#eaeaea size=2>"It's going to be the most exotic
place we've ever seen," said Candice Hansen, a scientist for the Cassini-Huygens
mission. "We've never landed on the surface of an icy satellite. We know from
our pictures that there are very different kinds of geological
processes."</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#eaeaea></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#eaeaea size=2>The Cassini-Huygens mission is an
unprecedented $3.3-billion effort between NASA, the European Space Agency and
Italy's space program to study Saturn and its 33 known moons. The two vehicles
were launched together from Florida in 1997.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#eaeaea></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#eaeaea size=2>"The mission is to explore the entire
Saturnian system in considerably greater detail than we have ever been able to
do before: the atmosphere, the internal structure, the satellites, the rings,
the magnetosphere," said Cassini program manager Bob Mitchell at
NASA.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#eaeaea></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#eaeaea size=2>The Huygens probe, about the size of
a Volkswagen-Beetle, has been spinning silently toward Titan since it detached
from the Cassini spacecraft on December 24. Cassini will remain in orbit around
Saturn until at least July 2008.</FONT></DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>
