Cassini Spacecraft

The Cassini spacecraft is in an excellent state of health and all subsystems are operating normally.  

On a high-inclination orbit of Saturn, the Cassini spacecraft gazes down at the north polar region of Janus. This view looks toward Janus (179 kilometers, or 111 miles across) from a perspective 72? N of the moon's equator. The image was taken with the Cassini spacecraft narrow-angle camera on...  

Cassini Significant Events 8/13/08 - 8/19/08BBSNews 2008-08-23 -- The most recent spacecraft telemetry was acquired on Aug. 19 from the Deep Space Network tracking complex at Goldstone, Calif. The Cassini spacecraft is in an excellent state of health and all subsystems are operating normally...  

"Icy Jets" Suggest Liquid Water May Be Beneath Surface...  

NASA's Cassini spacecraft has stumped planetary scientists. Saturn's moon unveils possible icequakes that grind its frozen crust. Enceladus is known as Saturn's geyser-spewing mystery moon.  

The image was taken with the Cassini spacecraft narrow-angle camera on Aug. 11, 2008, a distance of approximately 1,567 kilometers (974 miles) above the surface of Enceladus. Image scale is approximately 18 meters (59 feet) per pixel.  

In a feat of interplanetary sharpshooting, NASA's Cassini spacecraft has pinpointed precisely where the icy jets erupt from the surface of Saturn's geologically active moon Enceladus.  

The Cassini spacecraft on Tuesday began sending data to Earth following Monday's close flyby of Saturn's moon Enceladus, the U.S. space agency NASA reported. more... | PDA  

Frozen iceball or hidden ocean? NASA's Cassini spacecraft has renewed debate among planetary scientists over Saturn's geyser-spewing mystery moon, Enceladus.  

NASA’s Cassini orbiter is sweeping past Saturn’s icy moon Enceladus today to photograph geyser-like eruptions from the Southern Hemisphere. The hope is to find signs of the building blocks of life: NASA has pegged Enceladus as one of the most likely places in the Solar System (along with Mars and...

The most recent spacecraft telemetry was acquired on Aug. 5 from the DSN tracking complex at Madrid, Spain. The Cassini spacecraft is in an excellent state of health and all subsystems are operating normally.  

NASA reports the Cassini spacecraft has discovered the source of the icy jets which erupt from the surface of Saturn's geologically active moon Enceladus: New carefully targeted pictures reveal exquisite ...  

Reports from NASA indicate that the fractures, or "tiger stripes," where icy jets erupt on Saturn's moon Enceladus will be the target of a close flyby by the Cassini spacecraft on Monday, August 11. And they're talking close when it's only 50 kilometers (30 miles) from the surface...
