Thank you SO much for this! I just watched it and my jaw dropped to the floor. What an accomplishment. I thought about a hundred years or so from now when there will be a base on Titan and explorers on and above the surface will happen on this probe, hopefully right where it landed in 2005. Worth building an exhibit/museum for visitors on the site, it seems to me....

In fairness, the ask is placed peripherally and you can use the site without providing your location — it's an option for those who, like me, don't care about providing my location in return for a "local" forecast.
