Good news about Cassini !!

This should yield some stunning imagery.
I can't wait.
This shit is so fantastic, and the final kamikaze dive into Saturn will be incredible as well. 
I wonder how Carolyn Porco will feel watching Cassini crash into Saturn...

I hope proud as shit. Almost 10 years of mission extensions, countless data and high resolution photos, the first successful landing in the outer solar system, so much valuable information.
And sending data until the final moments. 
I want pictures NOW!!!

In-fucking-credible.

Been following this since the loss of contact, phantastic. Wanna see ring closeups!
