I wonder when, if ever, we will get any answers from people out there.

No, actually they are the two original voyagers! That is what is so amazing. 40 years later they are still in communication with NASA. Hard to believe, I know...
Jupiter needs another probe to follow up on all the was learned from Cassini.

The Huygens Lander was an interesting addition to all the data collected over several years by Cassini.

Well we learned a bit more about Uranus and its many moons!
My subscription to space.com yields its first very interesting post on Cassini: https://www.space.com/38151-cassini-...to-saturn.html

Thanks for those links, tailor, all adding extra useful information.
This post should come after and not before the other one. It seems one has to be careful where one buys eclipse glasses.

Counterfeit eclipse glasses created great confusion in the days prior to the solar eclipse. Luckily few cases of eye damage have been reported.

Poor Cassini!But I suppose they don´t have other uses for it. I´m curious about the images they are going to release.

Sorry, DW. I mean the very last ones they intend to release tomorrow, 15.09.

Yes, that will be interesting. This, I suppose: https://www.universetoday.com/137158...ashing-saturn/
Yes, that´s what I mean. Tomorrow or on Saturday they will probably release the last images.

It is clear that a further mission will be sent to examine the two moons, Enceladus and Europa, both of which have seas.
