title: Where is Cassini now? Cassini
---
[Where is Cassini now?](http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/cassini/today/) Cassini is on its way to Saturn, arriving in 2004. While it's flying there, you can see simulated views from the spacecraft. One view looks back at Earth, a second looks toward Jupiter, a third looks ahead at Saturn, while a fourth view looks down on the craft from high above the solar system. The pictures update themselves every few hours, and for the next few months they serve a second purpose: watch the planets align in the great [5/5/00 alignment that will destroy the Earth](http://rnoone.com/) (as we know it)! You know, this planet's getting hard to live on what with all the catastrophes lately. First the [devestating asteroid impacts](http://www.enterprisemission.com/) last November, the whole [Y2K](http://www.garynorth.com/) / [apocalypse](http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/apocalypse/) thing, and now the planets pulling the Earth apart. Sheesh! Enough, already! How will I ever make it to 2003, [when the mothership arrives](http://www.geocities.com/Area51/Corridor/4978/) to take home the chosen 144,000?
