So is all the programmer in assembler for the spacecraft or do they use a different language?

Super obvious what happened. The aliens took it and read the disc that's on it to communicte to whoever finds it. Now they are returning it.

All astronomy stuff of that era is either assembly or Forth (which is basically "macro-ready assembler"). They might have exotic things like C, but I doubt it.

Only downside to that Titan mission is it doesn't seem like they will be near the methane lakes/rivers...I would have loved to have seen flyovers of those features
