the space prob Huygens landed on Saturn's moon in the year 1932.
Titan, by the Huygens Probe, which was part of the Cassini-Huygens Probe.
The Cassini-Huygens mission was launched to the Saturnian System on October 15th, 1997. The probe that landed on the moon Titan was named Huygens, the orbiter was named Cassini. Huygens entered Titan's atmosphere On January 14, 2005 at 9:06 UTC. Huygens landed at 11:24, on the same day.
It did not land on Saturn. Huygens was an atmospheric entry probe carried to Saturn's moon Titan and landed on Titan on January 14, 2005.

The Huygens principle states that each point on a wavefront acts as a source of secondary wavelets that spread out in all directions. The formula for the Huygens principle is: r d/D, where r is the distance between wavelets, is the wavelength of light, d is the distance between the wavefront and the point of interest, and D is the distance from the wavefront to the screen. This principle helps explain how light waves propagate by showing how each point on a wavefront generates new wavelets that combine to form the overall wave pattern.
Huygens' theory of light was rejected because it couldn't explain certain phenomena, like diffraction and polarization, which Newton's corpuscular theory could. It also failed to accurately predict the speed of light in different media. However, Huygens' wave theory made a comeback later and is now a fundamental principle in understanding the behavior of light.
Yes it can. Huygens Principle basically states that every point wave front can be considered as a secondary source of tiny wavelets that spread out in the forward direction of the wave itself. If it's still a blur to you, think of when someone is talking. Even though they maybe directed towards someone else, you can hear them, right? That's because all the secondary particles on that particular wave front spread out in all different directions. Also, think of water. Huygens principle can be applied to it too. When you throw a rock in to a lake, don't you see that "ripple effect"? The reason is because the particles on the secondary wavefront spread out in all different areas that are directly tangent to the first wave. (Imagine that over and over again! Isn't that cool?)
