Objectives Cassini had several objectives, including: Determining the three-dimensional structure and dynamic behavior of the rings of Saturn. Determining the composition of the satellite surfaces and the geological history of each object. Determining the nature and origin of the dark material on Iapetus's leading hemisphere. Measuring the three-dimensional structure and dynamic behavior of the magnetosphere. Studying the dynamic behavior of Saturn's atmosphere at cloud level. Studying the time variability of Titan's clouds and hazes. Characterizing Titan's surface on a regional scale.
