Perhaps now would be a good time to start a new thread on the Extended-Extended Mission.

Following the 'proximal' link I've just read that piece by John Spencer. Made me wish I had a hat to throw in the air. I always said we needed a long lived 'weather satellite' for Titan in particular, now it seems that Casssini can take on that assignment and a lot more besides. Will it be funded? Well I don't think NASA will ever be offered so much science at so small a cost.
