I meant to post this before when Huygens went down, the
ESA put up
two sound files of the descent. The first one is not all that much except on a "so this is the sound of x descending to Titan in Y fashion" level but the second one is so awesome I have stuck it in my playlist! It is "produced by converting into audible sounds some of the radar echoes received by Huygens during the last few kilometres of its descent onto Titan" and it brings out everything gloriously sci-fi-geeky in me (because OMG A MOON IN OUTER SPACE!!11!) and I love the whole world and also there's that rush of adrenaline or endorphins or whatever just from the actual *sound*, PLUS I like weird rhythmic sounds and it has actual similarities to songs I like. Wooo! I bet it's already been mixed into a song by some electronic-neubauten band.
(I have had to use this icon *so many times* since I made it. This is a good indication of my nature. But bear in mind, I am a dork/geek about practically *everything*, except maybe the ways people fuck eeach other up. And sometimes even then!)
ETA: ( funny which intentional tort are you meme )
