Engineering at the University of Idaho
presenting the
"The Cassini/Huygen Exploration of Saturn and
Titan"
Dr. David
H Atkinson is currently a Co-Investigator on
the NASA/ESA (European Space Agency) Cassini
Doppler Wind Experiment to measure winds in
the atmosphere of Titan, the largest moon of
Saturn, and is chairing the ESA Huygens Probe
Descent Trajectory Working Group. In 1995,
Dr. Atkinson performed the first measurements
of the very deep atmospheric winds on Jupiter
as the Principle Investigator on the Galileo
Doppler Wind Experiment.
