After a seven year interplanetary voyage on board the the Cassini spacecraft, the European Space Agency's Huygens probe parachuted to a historic landing on Saturn's moon Titan on January 14.
The altitude image resolves features as small as about 40 meters.
In the dramatic surface level vista, the two rock-like objects below center are only about 15 centimeters and 4 centimeters across and lie 85 centimeters from the probe.
Remarkably, the views of Titan's surface suggest a similarity to eroded surfaces on Earth and Mars.
