        Did she ever marry? I watched the 100th Cassini documentary the other night, and she didn't look too fertile anymore.

        If your best argument against @carolynporco is irrelevant insults, perhaps we should ask if you ever grew a functioning brain? Guess not.

        The imagery from Cassini is awe inspiring. This was a beautifully conducted mission; it's ending is bitter sweet.
