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

Anybody know when a decision is to be reached on this? There seems to be a lot of Cassini news today, and the tour highlights for all of 2010 appearing on the Cassini website did make me wonder if something could be happening.

We hope to know more after the President's 2011 NASA budget is released in early February. However it's very unlikely that the plug will be pulled with only a few month's notice, so it's a pretty good bet (but with no guarantees) that the current 2010 flight plan will be executed as currently planned.
