Cassini's Top 10s of 2015 As Cassini enters its final 20 months before its plunge into Saturn, the mission’s science team has selected their top 10 images and science results from 2015, a year of historic discoveries.
During its final close flyby of Saturn's moon Enceladus, NASA's Cassini spacecraft revisited a landscape, and a mystery, that it had originally glimpsed more than 10 years earlier.
This flyby is, scientifically speaking, one of the two most important Titan observations for the composite infrared spectrometer (CIRS) instrument during this phase of Cassini's mission.
