Death Dive to Saturn

NOVA Death Dive to Saturn airs on WSKG TV on September 13, 2017 at  9pm


Almost everything we know about Saturn comes from  Cassini, the NASA mission that launched in 1997. As the mission approaches its final days in 2017, the spacecraft will attempt one last set of daring maneuvers—diving between the innermost ring and the top of Saturn’s atmosphere. Join NASA engineers for the tense and triumphant moments as they find out if their gambit has paid off, and discover the wonders that  Cassini has revealed over the years.
