[QUOTE="Channel Hopper, post: 795121, member: 175144"] Having been extended (twice) following the original end of the mission in 2008, the Cassini probe continues to send back stunning images of the Saturn system, and confirmation above others, seven new satellites of this planet (now listed as 52). The latest set of photos is due in over the next couple of days following the first of two 46 mile flybys of the snow covered moon Enceladus a week ago. Owing to the distance, power of the transmissions, and the resolution of the camera used, data takes up to ten days to be received and processed back on earth. _http://saturn.jpl.nasa.gov/mission/flybys/enceladus20120306/ [/QUOTE]
