Christiaan Huygens (The Hague 1629-1695), Dutch physicist, famous among other things for his Huygens Principle.
The Huygens Software is named after him because the Huygens Principle plays an important role in the computation of a microscope's Point Spread Function.
Huygens discovered in 1655 a moon at 1,221,830 km from Saturn that was called Titan, also known as Saturn VI or SVI. That's why we have chosen the name Huygens Titan for our coming image exploration program.
