They have now intentionally crashed such a craft on a planet that may contain life and/or valuable resources. Someone should be fired for this. Cassini should have been allowed to drift harmlessly into outer space.

Everything nasa does is FAKE. All conjured up to keep human beings believing that 'space' is real. Well, it isn't real. FAKE FAKE FAKE. There is NO proof that those points of light you see in the sky as 'stars' are distant SUNS like our sun. No proof. Only theory. Go watch the nasa space walk videos with air bubbles rising up during a live space walk... not kidding. All nasa gives us is GCI pictures and videos.  
Put a 24/7 camera livestreaming from the moon if you want to change my mind. Will never happen because we can reach the moon. 
Why hasn't nasa put a camera filming the earth 24/7?

How are people so stupid able to even breathe?
