The engine burn will slow Cassini allowing Saturn to grab the seven-tonne spacecraft, about the size of a two-storey building, and pull it into an orbit to begin its four-year mission to map every ...

This phenomenon is caused by an optical illusion that occurs when the stars line up. Saturn is tilted at 26.73 degrees on its orbit, while Earth is very close to that at a 23.5-degree tilt.

And once in orbit, Cassini-Huygens had 75 minutes to take pictures of Saturn and its rings before it turned again to point the antenna forward for its second transit through the ring gap.

It is the first orbiter to study Saturn in detail. The piggybacked Huygens probe, provided by the European Space Agency, plunged through the atmosphere of Saturn’s largest moon, Titan, in 2005.
