   What if (for the sake of discussion) there were a follow up to the   
   Huygens mission in the works.  What, given what we've learned so far,   
   would we want on the new probe?   
      
   It sounds like a nuclear power supply is required for anything more than   
   a couple of hours on the surface.  Is that true?   
      
   Would the ability to send data directly back to Earth be worth the cost?   
   Or would be better off with a Titan orbiter that could serve as a   
   communications relay?   
      
   Given the possibility that a probe might land on liquid, solid, or   
   swampy surface, would be be better of with a amphibious rover, or would   
   we try to steer it to a suitable landing spot.  Both options seem hard.   
      
   Would a hot air balloon or glider work in Titan's atmosphere?   
      
   What kind of equipment would be worth having?
