Something for Friday: Farewell, Cassini

The Cassini mission has ended with the space probe’s final plunge into the Saturnian atmosphere. We learned a great deal from Cassini — and we will continue to do so as more and more analysis of its data is done — and I find it somewhat of a bright moment in a world where science itself is being deeply undervalued at precisely the time when we need good science most.

Thank you, Cassini.
