Cassini Raw Images - NASA Solar System Exploration
This gallery contains the full record of the Cassini spacecraft’s raw images taken from Feb. 20, 2004 to Cassini’s end of mission on Sept. 15, 2017. The archive will remain available to all as a historical record.
Cassini: End of Mission - NASA Solar System Exploration
Cassini’s finale plunge is a fitting and truly spectacular end for one of the most scientifically rich voyages yet undertaken in our solar system. This end was planned for Cassini in 2010, at the beginning of its second ex-tended mission phase, known as the Solstice Mission.
Spacecraft Power for Cassini - NASA Solar System Exploration
NASA found that even with solar arrays containing the latest high-efficiency solar cells developed by the European Space Agency (ESA) it would not have been possible to conduct the Cassini mission using solar power.
Cassini–Huygens Spacecraft - NASA Solar System Exploration
The Cassini orbiter will orbit Saturn for 4 years. The spacecraft’s 12 onboard instruments will collect data about Saturn, the rings, the magnetosphere, Titan, and Saturn’s smaller moons.
What Are Raw Images? - NASA Solar System Exploration
At left is an unprocessed, or raw, image from NASA's Cassini spacecraft. The image was taken using a filter that lets red wavelengths of light pass through to the camera's sensor.
National Aeronautics and Cassini–Huygens Mission to Saturn and Titan ...
The Cassini mission is a joint effort of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), European Space Agency (ESA), and Italian Space Agency (ASI). The mission is managed for NASA by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory of the California Institute of Technology.
In Depth | Saturn Moons – NASA Solar System Exploration
Four spacecraft have visited the Saturn system, but only Cassini actually orbited the ringed planet. Doing so bought Cassini time – more than a decade – to linger and watch Saturn’s exotic zoo of 80-plus moons like no spacecraft before.
In Depth | Enceladus – NASA Solar System Exploration
On Oct. 9, 2008, just after coming within 25 kilometers (15.6 miles) of the surface of Enceladus, NASA's Cassini captured this stunning mosaic as the spacecraft sped away from this geologically active moon of Saturn.
Cassini Program Environmental Impact Supporting Study
Volume 2 is one of four documents that the Laboratory (JPL) has compiled to support the (EIS) for the Cassini Program by the National focus is on identifying and characterizing comparing those alternatives with the Cassini major mission and spacecraft power options 4, respectively.
In Depth | Tethys – NASA Solar System Exploration
Cassini referred to Tethys as one of the four Sidera Lodoicea (Stars of Louis) after King Louis XIV (the other three were Iapetus, Dione and Rhea). Other astronomers called the Saturn moons by number in terms of their distance from Saturn.
