I’ve been keeping track of the Cassini spacecraft since it’s launch on October 15, 1997 on it’s way to our ringed planet, Saturn and it’s largest moon, Titan. The Cassini-Huygens mission is composed of two elements: The Cassini orbiter that will orbit Saturn and its moons for four years, and the Huygens probe that will dive into the murky atmosphere of Titan and land on its surface. It will be another historic space mission, if everything goes as planned.
