Contact has been lost with the Cassini spacecraft after it completed a "death dive" into the upper atmosphere of Saturn and transmitted its final signal, according to NASA.

Cassini was launched on October 15, 1997 from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Florida. After a nearly seven-year journey, it arrived at its destination in 2004 and began exploring Saturn and its rings and moons.
