Whoo-hoo! I can announce this now. I am now a CoI on a selected NASA Advanced Innovative Concepts (NAIC) Phase I Study!!!
Titan is cool, right?
And flying on Titan is really cool, right?
And caves are cool too, right?
So, you may ask, what could be possibly cooler than flying inside a cave on Titan?
How about A MISSION CONCEPT TO FLY INSIDE A CAVE ON SATURN'S MOON TITAN WITH AN ELECTROHYDRODYNAMIC (= no moving parts) ENGINE?
I mean, srsly. FNA.
