Real space mission

A long overdue tribute to Cassini spacecraft, that was dropped into Saturn’s atmosphere a month ago, after bringing us breathtaking photos and science for nearly 20 years.

Today, 20 years ago, on 15th October 1997, Cassini spacecraft launched on top of Titan IVB (with Centaur upper stage) rocket from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station Space Launch Complex 40. 

If you want to learn more about the Cassini mission, you can visit the official NASA mission website or read the article on Wikipedia or even get a really great book about the mission (lots of technical information if you are into such things).

Prints of this and other artworks are available in my society6.comanddeviantART.comshops.
