Here's a link to the CASSINI Spacecraft where you can participate in NASA's exploration of the planet Saturn and it's Moons. You can take a 3D virtual tour of the Saturn System, locate the spacecraft at any point in it's mission, take the first look at raw images streaming from the probe, take a Virtual Tour of Titan and Enceladus, find data about the spacecraft and various facts about Saturn and Cassini.

The initial download is 9 megabytes and will take just a minute or two to install onto your browser; so that you may interact with the spacecraft and follow along on it's continuing journey to explore Saturn and both Titan and Enceladus.

FOLLOW THIS LINK to the JET PROPULSION LABORATORY at the California Institute Of Technology>>>

Thanx.... It's cool as heck isn't it!!!!! ....LOL...I'm still trying to figure it all out too; but enjoyed taking the probe apart and zooming in on its' components etc. The Moon mission mode is relatively easy after some practice...similar to spacecraft mode. It's the follow along mode with time coordinates that scares me so far....I'm not ready to attempt that one yet. The data at the site seems nearly inexhaustible
