Happening on my birthday, September 15
« on: September 06, 2017, 02:44:55 pm »
NASA's Cassini spacecraft, which has been orbiting Saturn for the last 13 years, is almost out of fuel. Cassini has made some fantastic discoveries, including the possibility of life on two of Saturn's moons. So NASA, to avoid any possibility of contamination, will send Cassini into Saturn's atmosphere on September 15, where it will burn up. They will try to maintain transmissions to Earth as long as possible.
