"Cassini's Grand Finale is drawing to a close. On Sept. 15, the probe — which is nearly out of fuel — will
 end its life by plunging intentionally into Saturn's thick atmosphere. This suicide maneuver is designed to
 ensure that Cassini never contaminates the potentially life-supporting Saturn moons Titan and Enceladus with 
microbes from Earth, NASA officials have said."
