Sci-Five | The Hindu Science Quiz: On Epimetheus
This image made by the Cassini spacecraft and provided by NASA on March 12, 2006, shows two of Saturn’s moons, the small Epimetheus and smog-enshrouded Titan, with Saturn’s A and F rings stretching across the frame. Launched in 1997, Cassini reached Saturn in 2004 and has been exploring it from orbit ever since. Cassini’s fuel tank is almost empty, so NASA has opted for a risky, but science-rich grand finale.
