The Cassini mission which aims at a detailed exploration of the Saturn's system is reviewed. The Cassini spacecraft is composed of a Saturn orbiter, and a Titan atmosphere probe named Huygens. Cassini is a joint NASA/ESA mission for which ESA is contributing the Huygens probe. The Cassini mission is designed to permit a detailed study of all the elements of the Saturn system, i.e., the planet Saturn, the rings, Titan and the other icy satellites, and the magnetosphere. The Cassini mission will give clues to the understanding of the processes associated with the formation and the evolution of a planetary system and of the solar system as a whole.
