Default OT- Huygens lander finds sailboats on Titan

The Huygens probe has sent the first images of Titan back to earth,
following it's successful landing on Saturn's largest moon.

Another shows a flat surface that is apparently covered in rocks
and boulders.

One of the pictures shows a shoreline of a dark oily ocean.

The probe also recorded and sent back sounds, possibly of a
wind in the area.

What appears to be some sort of sea-going vessels with sails
can be seen on one of the photos near the shoreline, though
the mist in the area makes it difficult to tell for sure.
