Cassini is a joint ESA and NASA mission to study Saturn and Titan. The probe arrived on Saturn in July 2004 after four planetary flybys (Venus twice, Earth and Jupiter). The mission has been extended several times.
The expected end of the mission was to be in 2008, but it was extended to 2010 (Equinox mission) and the Solstice mission extendeds it to 2017. Lacking additional fuel, the mission ended on September 15, 2017, plunging spectacularly into Saturn's atmosphere and disintegrating through it.
Cassini carried onboard 18 experiments designed to observe Saturn, its rings, its magnetosphere and its moons, particularly Titan. The CDPP archive allows the access to the data related to the Cassini/RPWS (Radio and Plasma Waves Science) experiment.
