The same team worked on this project together for 20 years. It was remarkably successful and yielded a lot of data. How would YOU feel leaving co-workers with whom you had worked on a project after 20 years? It can't have been easy to say goodbye. Cassini took its own life as it were. It was programmed to do what it did for all those years and programmed to die. I think it's very sad saying goodbye. Though for all the folks involved it is and was A JOB WELL DONE.

What if the price were right? A billion dollars enough? Would you be EXCITED to find out what is in your innermost being or dread whatever exposure of whatever evil lurks inside? Maybe there is no evil there at all but only sunshine and roses and happy thoughts. Are you a gambler? less
