NASA probe to cross Saturn's rings, end 20-year-long mission
NASA's Cassini spacecraft which was launched in 1997 and is orbiting Saturn for last 13 years is now in the mission's last stages with a planned dive through the 2,400-km-gap between the planet and its rings. The probe will perform a flyby around Saturn's giant moon Titan before plunging into Saturn's atmosphere while taking first-ever samples of inner ring particles.
