Nova: Death Dive to Saturn

This September, the first mission to put a spacecraft in Saturn's orbit to explore and reveal the most iconic planet in our solar system will come to an historic end. In a final display of precision piloting, Cassini will make dangerous dives between Saturn and the inner edge of its rings, dipping into its hazy, often violent atmosphere for the first time to learn even more about a planet it has marveled at for two decades. In a one-hour special event, we will reveal the secrets that Cassini has learned about Saturn, its rings and moons, exposing a planet as it has never been seen. (National Geographic)
