If you are not too sure with what Huygens is, this is a type of spacecraft that is bound to check Titan. The journey of Huygens going to Titan will require a lot of effort. It was only able to provide vital data for a short amount of time. It returned to data to Earth providing information that is needed by the scientists.

After that, Huygens stopped providing the data needed. Some say that it is still sending data over the years but the information and details are already different from what it is expected to provide. It is speculated that it is still in space and it might be trying to provide information to itself.
