Cassini’s 13-year exploration of Saturn stands as the most successful interplanetary mission in NASA history. Its “Grand Finale” (with dives through the outer ring edge and between the  inner rings and cloud tops) culminated with a plunge into Saturn’s depths. Insights earned during these maneuvers bring Saturn’s complex glory into focus as never before.

SETI Institute Senior Research Scientist Matthew Tiscareno is the scheduled speaker.
