Which of these spacecraft went into orbit around Saturn in July 2004?

There have been four spacecraft that have visited Saturn. The first was 'Pioneer 11', which was launched on April 5th, 1973. In August of 1977, 'Voyager One' and 'Voyager Two' were both launched to begin their mission to Saturn. 'Voyager One' flew by Saturn on November 1980 and, 'Voyager Two' reached Saturn in the summer of 1981. On October 15, 1997, a European spacecraft, called the Cassini-Huygens was the last to explore Saturn. A fifth spacecraft will be launched from the Cassini called the Huygens probe. This smaller probe was sent to to explore Saturn's largest moon, Titan.
