I have been following the pictures sent by Cassini for bit over a year now and they are some of the most amazing things I've seen. This seems like a great victory to human engineering, to have such high quality images of planet so far away.
When did you come up with the idea to let Cassini go out in blaze of glory by sending it to dive to Saturn's atmosphere? Or was this the plan all along?
And what are the common feelings about 20 year old mission finally coming to an end? Are you sentimental or is it just another mission done and onwards to the next one?
