Re: Farewell Cassini
Cassini's farewell breaks my heart. I wish we had a mission like Cassini's for every planet in the solar system, also I wish we have missions like the Voyagers attempting to tour and exit the solar system.
Throughout the year NASA JPL YouTube channel has been posting a lot of farewell videos. These are my favorites.

NASA's Cassini Spacecraft: A Journey's End: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gPdgsPTNhac
NASA JPL Cassini: A Saturn Odyssey: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fHaaIX-iSqM
Last but not least the Huygens Probe Titan touchdown video.

Re: Farewell Cassini
Ahmed, cool videos! I agree with you. It makes me sad as well. I get emotional about space events! When Philae landed on Rosetta's comet (aka 67p/Churyumov-Gerasimenko), I literally cried tears of joy. I shared that breaking news with my little girls and my oldest almost had tears in her eyes as well. It's so incredible to see what's out there and to ponder how far humanity has come (albeit we have so far to go, in many ways). I wish there were more missions like Cassini happening all the time. Astronomy definitely requires patience and an acceptance that, given the length of the human lifespan, we just aren't going to get our fill.
