Designed and funded in the pre-"better, faster, cheaper" era, Cassini was built to be the single spacecraft to Saturn for many years to come. Its complement of 12 orbiter science instruments and the Huygens probe make Cassini one of the most complex missions ever flown. With its seven year cruise and Saturn orbit insertion now accomplished, Cassini is settling in to perform a very ambitious four-year prime mission. Cassini-Huygens is an international collaboration between three space agencies, and 17 nations contributed to building the spacecraft. The Cassini orbiter was built and is managed by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory. The Huygens probe was built by the European Space Agency, and the Italian Space agency provided Cassini's high-gain communications antenna.
