My dad was on the Cassini team at Lockheed Martin. This is his favorite baby.
Anyone remember the hysteria the environuts suffered when Cassini swung around the sun and passed by the Earth on it’s way to Saturn? I heard these idiots actually say out loud that Cassini was going to reenter the atmosphere and kill all life on the planet.
