- jessriedel 9y agoHere is the end-of-mission timeline. https://saturn.jpl.nasa.gov/mission/grand-finale/cassini-end-of-mission-timeline/ https://saturn.jpl.nasa.gov/mission/grand-finale/cassini-end... In particular, Cassini is expected to burn up at about 6:30am on Friday morning, but because the light travel time from Saturn will be ~83mins, Cassini's signal will not fall silent until 7:53-7:55am.
