The latest shots taken with Cassini are unique. So close to the surface of Saturn has not yet been able to approach any device launched from Earth. A number of scientists believe that one of the fragments of the legendary probe still managed to "survive", since it separated from the main part even before it fell. However, specialists can not predict where it can be at the moment.
