Cassini swings past giant moon

“The Cassini spacecraft has made a close pass of Saturn’s giant moon Titan which is expected to result in the closest views yet of the mysterious satellite. “
I’ve started using a cool program called Celestia a couple of months ago. Basically Celestia is a real-time space simulation which allows you to tour the universe checking out all known planets & stars as well as satellites & spacecraft (such as the aforementioned Cassini), comets and other such extra-terrestrial thingies. I’d highly recommend downloading it, and while your at it pay a visit to Celestia Motherlode and download some extras such as surface textures, NASA shuttles, satellites, nebulae and wormholes or fictional add-ons like Star Wars/Star Trek vessels.
