Where is Cassini now? Cassini is on its way to Saturn, arriving in 2004. While it’s flying there, you can see simulated views from the spacecraft. One view looks back at Earth, a second looks toward Jupiter, a third looks ahead at Saturn, while a fourth view looks down on the craft from high above the solar system. The pictures update themselves every few hours, and for the next few months they serve a second purpose: watch the planets align in the great 5/5/00 alignment that will destroy the Earth (as we know it)! You know, this planet’s getting hard to live on what with all the catastrophes lately. First the devestating asteroid impacts last November, the whole Y2K / apocalypse thing, and now the planets pulling the Earth apart. Sheesh! Enough, already! How will I ever make it to 2003, when the mothership arrives to take home the chosen 144,000?
