So this is Cassini's Identity.
Cassini was sent for space research in 1997.
Besides Cassini, three more spacecraft were sent to Saturn.
In 1672, Giovanni Cassini found a small object close to Venus.
Cassini began its mission to Saturn in 1997,
reaching the ringed planet in 2004.
In 1678 he introduced Nicolaas Hartsoeker to French scientists such as Nicolas Malebranche and
Giovanni Cassini.
He said that we are here to celebrate here because Cassini has completed our journey.
In 2013, NASA's Cassini spacecraft found deep canyons about a half-mile
wide on Saturn's moon Titan.
Cassini captured this close view of Saturn's moon
Pandora during the spacecraft's flyby on June 3, 2010.
Members of the Cassini imaging team had been planning
this special farewell view of Saturn for years.

Huygens also discovered Saturn's moon Titan;
Giovanni Domenico Cassini later discovered four other moons:
Iapetus, Rhea, Tethys and Dione.

On June 30, 2004, the US spacecraft Cassini dropped a probe into Titan, one of Saturn's moons.

In the 21st century
observations continue from the Earth(or Earth-orbiting observatories) and from the Cassini orbiter at Saturn.
Using data from the Cassini mission, scientists identified negatively charged
molecules called‘carbon chain anions' in the atmosphere of Titan.
Between 2004 and 2017, the American spacecraft Cassini studied for the first time the Saturnian system from orbit.
The Cassini spacecraft spotted the water/hydroxyl signal in 1999
while passing by the moon on its way to Saturn.
In images from the Cassini spacecraft during 2007,
Saturn's northern hemisphere displayed a bright blue hue, similar to Uranus.
The lake was discovered in 2008 by the Cassini, and it is rich in methane and other hydrocarbon components.
On this occasion, the Cassini watcher team was wearing purple colored shirts
and they embraced each other and shook their hands.
The descendant of Cassini will focus on Enceladus,
and there is a good chance that SELFI will be part of the mission.

NASA reported in November 2006 that Cassini had observed a"hurricane-like" storm locked
to the south pole that had a clearly defined eyewall.
In July 2006, Cassini images provided evidence of hydrocarbon lakes near Titan's north pole,
the presence of which were confirmed in January 2007.
More than 1500 people gathered in California's Jet Propulsion Lab,
most of whom were former or existing members of the Cassini missions team.
Cassini also observed two mysterious objects on the surface of the
sea that was island-like and was thought to be debris or waves.
