	Cassini-Huygens: Overview
		Thus, the Cassini orbiter and the Huygens probe were equipped with an array of sophisticated instruments and cameras able to collect images in many varying conditions and light spectra; from visible light to the infrared.
		After a seven-year voyage that includes four gravity-assist maneuvers, Cassini entered Saturn's orbit in July of 2004.
		This is a task that none of the three previous NASA missions that flew by Titan were able to do because of the thick, hazy atmosphere that engulfs this celestial body -- the only moon in the solar system with its own atmosphere.

	CJR November/December 2004: Blinded by Science
		In a rich irony, a UPI report on August 30, 2004, about the Boykoffs’ study covered it in — that’s right — a thoroughly “balanced” fashion.
		The article gave considerable space to the viewpoint of Frank Maisano, a former spokesman for the industry-sponsored Global Climate Coalition and a professional media consultant, who called the Boykoffs’ contentions “absolutely outrageous” and proceeded to reiterate many of the dubious criticisms of mainstream climate science for which the “skeptic” camp is so notorious.
		Take a January 8, 2004, article by The Washington Post’s Guy Gugliotta, reporting on a study in the journal Nature finding that global warming could “drive 15 to 37 percent of living species toward extinction by mid-century.” Gugliotta’s story hardly suffered from phony balance.

		But first, here is what the article says: December 4, 2004, 11:57 PM (GMT+02:00) Syrian ruler Bashar Assad is pitching his offer of peace talks with Israel to disguise his real woes: US and French demands to disarm the Hizballah terrorists and let Lebanon have a fair election and the internal divisions bedeviling his regime.
		Israel applied this rule of thumb to the Syrian government newspaper Tishrin’s article on Saturday, December 4, which urged the world to force Israel to accept negotiations with Syria rather than tolerating the Jewish state’s obstructions.
