    Cassini needed to be disposed, instead of just drifting about and maybe polluting a moon. OK, but Huygens parachuted to Titan surface. Currently just sittin', perhaps with an occasional -100 oC methane powerwash. I missed the part where its potential contamination of surface was debated.

    if the little timer bar is blinking in the top right, don't hit post reply again, just wait for the servers to send their signal to uranus.
