You can see all of them here.


This image of Saturn’s northern hemisphere was taken by NASA’s Cassini spacecraft on Sept. 13, 2017. It is among the last images Cassini sent back to Earth. Image Credit: NASA


This image shows the moon Enceladus and the edge of Saturn as seen from the Cassini spacecraft on its descent towards the planet on Wednesday 13 September 2017. Image Credit: NASA


This image was taken as Cassini flew by Titan one last time before transmitting images and scientific data from the flight. Image Credit: NASA

Yup. All fake and photoshopped bullshite.

One of the most disappointing things I've ever found out.

I bet the newspapers on Saturn are freaking out. An alien spacecraft just crashed into their planet.

We should have included an audio message from Coach O. Just so they would know that we aren't an intelligent species and we have no intention of beating them at anything.

Yep. Turns out our solor system is just a cell and we really can't break through the cell membrane unless we go cancerous as a space exploration race.

That last photo is awe inspiring. We're actually entering Saturn's atmosphere for the first time.

If you think we've never been to Saturn before you're kidding yourself. They're just telling us now to prepare us for what's about to come. Hell, we have military bases on 2 planets and the moon.

So, where are the aliens and sea serpents?

Or were these pics really taken by aliens and sent to NASA and they lied about it being from something they built?

The earth is flat and we can't get through the firmament

I'm still convinced Saturn is flat and nothing you say or show me will convince me otherwise.

He's already said too much. An advance team disguised as an A/V service crew is probably moving on his house as we speak.

Wouldn't they know? Why is this so mysterious? Can't they just look at the time stamp on the file?
