The Government pays for the Cassini space mission.
The Cassini High-gain antenna was the contribution of the European Space Agency (ESA). It was an integral part of the Cassini spacecraft mission to study Saturn and its moons, providing communication with Earth during the mission.
The Cassini-Huygens probe was launched on the15th of October 1997, on a mission to orbit Saturn and study its many moons. in 2008 , NASA extended the Cassini-Huygens mission by two years naming it the Cassini Equinox Mission. Another mission extension has been proposed to to prolong Cassinis mission until 2017.
No, the Cassini space mission ended on September 15, 2017, when the spacecraft was deliberately directed into Saturn's atmosphere and burned up. The mission provided valuable data and insights into Saturn and its moons during its 20-year journey.
Planning and carrying out a space mission like Cassini can take decades. It involves extensive research, development, testing, and collaboration between multiple organizations and countries. Cassini, for example, was in development for over 20 years before its launch.
The space probe launched in October 1997 was the Cassini-Huygens mission. It was a joint project between NASA, the European Space Agency, and the Italian Space Agency, and its primary mission was to study Saturn and its moons.
the cassini space crafts mission was too orbit venus and then observe saturns moons
Cassini's mission exploring Saturn and its moon will end in 2013.
== == The Cassini space orbiter was part of the Cassini-Huygens mission, a collaborative NASA/ESA/ASI unmanned space mission for the purpose of studying Saturn and its moons.
Cassini - it's still there and will be for a while.

No space mission has landed on Saturn because the planet doesn't have a surface to land on. However, the Cassini-Huygens mission did land a probe on Titan, Saturn's largest moon.
The most recent space mission to explore Saturn was the Cassini-Huygens mission, which ended in 2017. Cassini was a spacecraft that orbited Saturn for over 13 years, studying the planet and its moons in great detail. The mission provided valuable insights into the planet's atmosphere, rings, and moons.

1. I don't remember any explosion of Cassini spacecraft in 1997. This Cassini is also now in space for research on Saturn (up to 2017). 2. The thermoelectric generator with plutonium-238 can be totally recovered at the end of mission.
