The Cassini-Huygens probe is approaching Saturn, and is nearly at the end of its extremely long journey. It is already taking better photographs than anything we've seen before, and much is expected from both the orbiter and the Titan probe.

This picture is a simulation of what we might see, rendered with the latest technology.

Err. Nope?

Would you believe that it's a part of a scale Solar System model here in Helsinki, then? :)

(Ah, biking season. Which T9 wanted to call "bikini reason" instead...)

How long is a day on Saturn? Scientists say they're no longer sure. Radio emissions recorded by the Cassini space probe hint that the period varies significantly. It's the second major discovery by the craft. Amit Asaravala reports from Pasadena, California.

Cassini Is Almost to Saturn!

Cassini Is Almost to Saturn! 05/28/2004 10:58 PM
After 6 years in space, the $3.2 billion Cassini robotic spacecraft is due to arrive at Saturn soon. Nasa will fire up the engines to prepare Cassini for an orbital insertion on July 1st. As early as June 11th, Cassini will zip past one of Saturn's outer moons Phoebe. Later in the middle of January, the Huygens probe will be dropped to study the atmosphere of Titan; another of Saturn's moons. Some activists hated Cassini for being nuclear but it appears not to have harmed anything much. Of course, Nasa is yet again searching and hoping for life on other celestial bodies, but at least we've been getting some great pictures of the Ringed World.

Saturn Orbit Insertion

Saturn Orbit Insertion 07/01/2004 05:17 PM
"Standard orbit, aye, sir." Following a nail-biting ring-plane crossing and 96-minute engine burn, Cassini has arrived, and is now in orbit around Saturn, 84 light-minutes away, sending in the first closeup pictures of the planet's rings. Also see the Planetary Society's detai ls on the Orbit Insertion, Spaceflight Now's mission updates in weblog-like format, and raw images from the spacecraft as they come. Kudos, JPL! (Aside: the press has yet to tire of Lord of the Rings references.)

BoingBoing friend John Parres says:

JPL's Cassini spacecraft is making it's final approach to Saturn after seven years of whipping around our solar system. This weekend the probe flew by an outer retrograde moon, Phoebe, and based on stunning pictures unspooling today it seems Phoebe is an ice rich body, perhaps even a captured comet! If all goes well on July 1st Cassini will enter into orbit around the ringed planet and provide four years of exploration including the December landing of the 700 pound Huygens probe on Saturn's largest moon, Titan.
