Cassini's Grand Finale orbits pay off: Final dives tell the story of the previously unexplored region between Saturn and its rings

NASA's Cassini spacecraft has detected dust storms on Saturn's largest moon, making Titan the third Solar System body where such storms have been observed.

The Cassini spacecraft has been gone for a year now, but the science continues. Here are 10 reasons why Cassini mattered...

During NASA's Cassini mission's final distant encounter with Saturn's giant moon Titan, the spacecraft captured the enigmatic moon's north polar landscape of lakes and seas, which are filled with liquid methane and ethane.

JPL has won an Emmy Award for Outstanding Original Interactive Program for its coverage of the Cassini mission's Grand Finale at Saturn.

A study using Cassini data reveals a warming, high-altitude, hexagonal vortex emerging at Saturn’s northern pole

The Cassini mission revealed a surprising feature emerging at Saturn's northern pole as it nears summertime: a warming, high-altitude vortex with a hexagonal shape, akin to the famous hexagon seen deeper down in Saturn's clouds.

The final Cassini Science Symposium, and other recent Cassini mission events.

Two important meetings of scientists took center stage for the Cassini team this month. COSPAR, the Committee on Space Research, came to Pasadena on July 15. The following week was dedicated to PSG #75, the Cassini Project Science Group meeting at JPL.

To most of us, dust is an annoyance. But these tiny particles that float about and settle on surfaces play an important role across the solar system.

This summer offers plenty of opportunities for skywatchers looking to observe Mars, Saturn, Jupiter and meteors--with or without a telescope.

The Academy of Television Arts & Sciences nominated NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California, for Outstanding Original Interactive Program for its coverage of the Cassini mission's Grand Finale at Saturn, including news, web, education, television and social media efforts.

New research from NASA's Cassini spacecraft's up-close Grand Finale orbits shows a surprisingly powerful and dynamic interaction of plasma waves moving from Saturn to its rings and its moon Enceladus

Cassini team members continued working to ensure that a complete and thorough archive of all the mission's data will be available for decades to come. Work is also proceeding on writing and editing the Cassini Final Mission Report.

Data from NASA's Cassini spacecraft reveal complex organic molecules originating from Saturn’s icy moon Enceladus, strengthening the idea that this ocean world hosts conditions suitable for life.

What's up in the night sky this month? Enjoy a ringside seat for Saturn, plus a night long parade featuring Venus, Jupiter, Mars and Vesta!

Members of the Cassini flight team are honored to be receiving so many formal accolades for the 20-year mission's accomplishments, while even more were awarded this month.

Now that the Cassini spacecraft’s journey has ended, scientists across the globe will be studying its rich science legacy for decades to come. After Cassini’s science-instrument teams have spent several months working out the final data products, all the observations and measurements are delivered to NASA’s Planetary Data System.

The Cassini team was honored with the Swigert Award for Space Exploration during the 2018 SpaceSymposium.

Cassini management, engineers, scientists and staff who have offices in JPL's historic Space Flight Operations Building have been shuffling offices, to make room for upcoming construction activities on the second floor. Thanks to the support teams' expertise (they've done this before!), the move to the first floor has imposed only a minor disruption in the ongoing work of closeout, archiving data, creating a Final Mission Report, and dismantling the Mission's remaining ground-system components.

The Moon, Mars and Saturn form a pretty triangle in early April, Lyrid meteors are visible, and more.

At the 49th Lunar and Planetary Science Conference in March 2018, Cassini Project Scientist Linda Spilker reviewed the highlights of the Cassini mission.

Whether you're doing it for the nerd cred or the pie, this week on #10Things, we've got all the ways you can celebrate #PiDay with NASA.
