Unseen images of Saturn's belt
The image was taken last Wednesday, when it began its last 22 loops around Saturn.
Scientists for the first time in history have seen the space between Saturn and its rings.
Cassini has moved at a speed of more than 124,000 km / h, wriggling through dense areas of dust, which can cause it to malfunction or even be destroyed. The ship had to use a disc-shaped antenna as a shield, causing the data from it to be transmitted to Earth over the past few days.
There have not been any human-made objects ever made trips into the deep space of planets like this. After disconnecting the signal with the globe, Earth scientists are anxiously waiting for the signal to be transmitted from the ship, hoping that the ship will not be malfunctioning and can spread the antenna to transmit data.
The Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California is the first to receive the train's signal after transmitting billions of kilometers into space. This means that the ship has moved through dangerous spaces to reach the other side of Saturn.
In September, Cassini will launch a free fall inside Saturn, bury itself inside the planet and end its mission forever. But from then until then, NASA said there will be many spectacular images never seen before of Saturn.
Here are the raw images just received from Cassini about the last trip, the image has not been edited.
