Along with another of Saturn's moons, Titan, Enceladus is now considered one of the most promising places in our solar system to search for life.

Cassini's pictures of Saturn and its moons. An artists' impression of Cassini shooting across Saturn's skies as it disintegrates and melts.
It will look like a shooting star. Photo: NASA - Jet Propulsion Laboratory - Caltech In finding the possibility of life, Cassini condemned itself to violent death. Disintegration in Saturn's atmosphere means there is no chance any Earth microbes that may cling to the satellite could contaminate either moon. On Friday afternoon at 1.15, the Canberra space centre will take over tracking the satellite using two huge dishes mounted at Tidbinbilla, just outside the city.
Canberra will be responsible for sending a continuous signal to the probe as it plunges towards Saturn. The CSIRO-managed Canberra Deep Space Communication Complex Photo: CSIRO - CDSCC/Supplied This signal locks into the spacecraft's computers and provides a timing code, ensuring Cassini executes each manoeuvre at the right time. The code is accurate to trillionths of a second. Forever Martin Nievera Ft Regine Velasquez Mp3 Download. Cassini will try to gather as much scientific data as possible in its final moments and beam it back to Tidbinbilla via radio waves. Great Activity Nana Mizuki Raritan there.
Instruments will try to measure the composition of Saturn's atmosphere, its temperature and magnetic field. Scientists will monitor Cassini's last moments from inside the control room in Canberra.

Things have been tenser than usual as they check and recheck systems for bugs and conduct dress rehearsals for Friday. Inside Saturn's atmosphere, Cassini won't burn. The planet's -142 degree skies are far too cold for that.
Instead, NASA says, it will be smashed into pieces by turbulence. Atmospheric friction will then heat those pieces to about 1300 degrees, and they will melt away to nothing. In the control room in Tidbinbilla, CSIRO scientists will hear the signal first waver, and then go silent altogether. 'It's been a daily part of our lives,' says Mr Nagle, who has been with this mission for 15 years. 'And when that signal disappears – it's not like losing a friend or family member.
'It's kind of like the last episode of your favourite TV show. You've watched this story for 20 years. And it's not going to be there next week.
'They are just machines, and you're not going to cry over a machine ending. But it is the ending of a thing and you will miss it.'
After the signal goes dark, the scientists will keep their dishes pointed at Saturn for another hour and a half. Just in case an old friend has any last words for us.
Can't make it this Saturday, but hopefully next, as I have a prototype of Martin Wallace's new game Witches. The follow up to Ankh Morepork, Witches is based around Discworld's witching community.
4-player game where the players control apprentice witches zooming around trying to solve problems with headology and magic whilst avoiding getting a dose of the cackles! Light to medium complexity, duration about an hour, a must for Discworld fans, but enough for a hardcore gamer who wants a light lunch between 18XX games. • Posted 22/07/13 7:20 PM •. Thought I would add my collection to the forum.
