Report abusive post | Cassini Temperature Sensors were readjusted to show false data
| Quote |
During the construction of Cassini it was decided by some very smart scientists that the temperature sensors should be intentionally misaligned to throw off all the "profane". They are off by approximately 175-180°C.
Whatever Cassini sensors say please add 175-180°C to the official temperature readings to get actual surface temperature.
Over and out. |

The temperature readings are of frozen crystals in the upper atmosphere of Titan.
The surface temperature is very warm. Much heat eminates from deep sub-surface heat sources. The moving liquid moves the heat around the moon.
Some areas of the ground are quite warm. |

When Cassini flew past the earth five years ago its instrumentation indicated that the temperature on earth ranged from -180 C to -120 C! In effect Cassini indicated a planet with little likely hood of life, rich in Nitrogen. |

When Cassini flew past earth the sensors measured temperatures below -100 C, the article was in an engineering publication on sensors, it wasnīt widely published. They attributed the temperature error to temperatureīs at high altitude. |

Yeah, and another thing - when Cassini was flying by and took pictures of the earth, it took a picture of your momīs butt! Uh-huh.
See, Titanīs surface is actually much warmer than that because itīs heat comes from deep inside itīs sweaty cleft...
Just wow. You wouldnīt just maybe happen to have any kind of documentation, at all, to back up this totally stupid assertion - now - would you?
No? Oh, sorry, forget I asked. Iīll just take your A.C. word for it. Thatīll be good enough. I am a total jack-ass after all... I mean, I spent the time to write this... |

Not widely published, huh? Too bad; but I suppose not many people would have been interested in it. |

Warm surface area with flowing warm liquids.
When one adds warm and cold and some dust particles one creates clouds, and FOG. When there is temperature movement from the surface into the atmosphere one creates cold and warm fronts that create winds.
What is the atmospheric pressure on Titan? Hmmmmmmmm
Temperature movement from hot to cold creates steam, clouds, etc...
Ever see a jet plane break the sound barrier? How exactly is the cloud-fog formed? Low pressure and condensation.
Titan has a warm surface and the Cassini temperature readings were taken of the crystals in the high atmosphere.
The probe readings were readjusted to meet the Cassini readings. |

Boy, thank god youīs so bright!
Because, if I read you right, thereīs no way the convention currents youīre describing could occur at lower temperatures, right?
And, uh, did I miss the jet breaking the sound barrier in the atmosphere about Titan, is that on the esa site?
(Still no link to that other pesky data, huh?) |

Uh - "ConveCtion" currents, that was supposed to read, "ConveCtion", not "conveNtion"
Where on the ESA site does it... oh, damn, sorry - they want to keep the info private to keep from BLOWING OUR WITTLE MINDS! |

letīs just pretend you are right, so what purpose would it serve to do that? does the world really care about the temperature on titan? you propose a scenario, but you have not answered the īwhysī of it all. |

OK, first of all, the probe that landed on Titan is called "Huygens". Cassini is the craft that carried it there, and itīs still in orbit around Saturn.
Secondly, why would the temperature sensors be adjusted to give incorrect readings? I donīt see the point in doing that at all. If Titan actually was a lot warmer that would make it a very interesting place, quite possibly a place where life might exist, which would get the scientists a huge input of funding to send more probes and to carry out a lot more research. Making it appear too cold for life would be pretty stupid.
Also, since the expected surface temperature was well known before the probe was launched (based on many different pieces of data, plus calculations of energy from the Sun at that range) how did they know by how much to "adjust" the sensors? If it actually is warmer, then nobody could have known by how much, so where do you get your figure of 175 to 180 degrees?
And how do YOU happen to know this? If itīs a big secret, how did you find out, and why are you posting it on GLP instead of going to the worldīs press with this hot story?
And finally, what do you mean by īthrow off all the "profane"ī? That makes even less sense than the rest of your ideas. |

The Rings of Saturn are a giant automated mining and sifting operation. Whoever owns the space around Saturn takes advantage of the low gravity of the various moons and ejects the the ore from the moon using some sort of mechanism. Once the ore is ejected it speeds into one of the rings and stays there until the orbit of the ejected material over time decays and the material is ground-up by all the other material that was ejected before it and the various gravitational tidal forces that play within the Saturn system.
The Saturn mining operation takes advantage of the Magnetic fields of Saturn, and the orbit of the mined ore to sift the ore to dust over a period of time. This is a very efficient operation that has been going on for a very long time.
The various mined moons in turn are ground up and processed for ore.
Whoever they are, they are clever. |

Whoever they are probably guard their operation via various military outposts disguised as moons.
Do any of the moons of Saturn resemble a Death Star? Or, do any of the moons look manufactured? |

I guess whoever they are use some form of advanced or encrypted form of communication that does not require radio transmissions that can be detected by our astronomers?
Maybe they use Telepathy? Their planetary, sub surface facilities would use fiberoptics?
Why would they wish to hide their prescence?
Maybe they hide to survive. Maybe all the craters on all the various moons in the solar systems are the scars of the "Great War in the Heavens" that is spoken of in our legends long, long time ago?
Maybe all the various warring factions are only rebuilding their lost civilizations and are hiding to survive.
Maybe broadcasting radiowaves into deep space is not such a good idea.
Maybe doing so is anouncing to the space predators that their next lunch is ripe and ready.
Maybe that is what happened in the past, right here on earth.
Hmmmmmmmmmm |

Maybe they use MASERS, or microwave lasers that shoot like guns and are only detected at their destination.
Or, they use the magnetic field of Saturn as a form of communication. Sort of like creating a disturbance on a spiderweb with the spider web being the magnetic field of Saturn.
Or, their communicatin is hidden in the background hiss of deep space radiation?
Nobody would be able to detect them. |

Iīam suprised at how delluded you glpīs really are. Although i cannot really balme you, for you hear what the scientists tell you and therefore it must be true.
However you are wrong!
The op is right!
Titan is unique, its a moon with an atmosphere, its a newcomer to our solar sytem, and it is a hot place.
For many of you, i can tell that you are too far delluded to realise you were fooled, even if the evidence is brought to your attention.
You are like sheep. And you fight opposing concepts with hate and rudeness. But rest assured, you are the fools. |

Well NASA says it was -292c degrees or -180f. Then they said the Hymen probe landed in mud.
The bottom line is I donīt think it matters so much being 900 million miles away. Nobody will ever step foot on it.
Itīs not like all the countries are going to build one good ship and go exploring. Because they all are greedy and want to individually reap the credit and rewards if their were any.
Instead short of a few roaming rovers, satellites and probes the only thing they are going to reap is total disaster. |

More of Titans secrets to be unveiled on 21 January After several days of processing and analysis of these results, the scientists will be able to deliver a better view of this strange distant world during a press conference on Friday 21 January at 11:00 CET at ESAs Headquarters in Paris (rebroadcast at several other ESA establishments). NASA-TV will broadcast the press conference across the US and as partner in the Cassini-Huygens mission ensure live streaming. For details, see: [link to www.nasa.gov] |

Is it true that Titan has the lowest taxes in the solar system?
No, but still they are pretty low. Unfortunatly with exchange rates being as they are Titan is shunned by tourists.
