The
Cassini/Huygens Mission to Saturn
The Cassini/Huygens mission is a joint NASA/European
Space Agency/Italian Space Agency project which has a spacecraft currently in
orbit about Saturn, and has successfully sent an atmospheric probe through the
atmosphere of Saturn’s largest moon Titan and down to its previously hidden
surface. This presentation will describe the overall mission, how it got a
rather massive spacecraft to Saturn, and will cover some of the scientific
results of the mission to date.
