From the recording Planetarium (Remastered)
This track features the laboratory-reconstructed audio of what it would have been like to descend to the surface of Saturn's moon Titan. The sounds were taken from real recordings of the Huygens spacecraft as it hurtled down into Titan's thick nitrogen atmosphere on January 14th January 2005, to find a world rich in lakes of petroleum.
The buffeting wind fades, and the music takes over as the trauma of falling from the stars onto an alien world subsides, and the spirit is stirred to see the beauty of it all, wherever you are. We've all somehow fallen from the stars to be where we are, haven’t we.
