Three days before plunging into Saturn&#8217;s sunny side, the robotic Cassini spacecraft swooped far behind Saturn&#8217;s night side with cameras blazing. Thirty-six of these images have been merged &#8212; by an alert and adept citizen scientist &#8212; into a last full-ring portrait of Cassini&#8217;s home planet for the past 13 years. The Sun is just above the frame, causing Saturn to cast a dark shadow onto its enormous rings. This shadow position cannot be imaged from Earth and will not be visible again until another Earth-launched spaceship visits the ringed giant. Data and images from Cassini&#8217;s mission-ending dive into Saturn&#8217;s atmosphere on September 15 continue to be analyzed. via NASA <a href=\"http:\/\/ift.tt\/2wMUGtg\"><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How should Cassini say farewell to Saturn?
