This must be an exciting time for you, as Cassini nears the end of its mission.

I count 8 seconds between double posts! :P
Very cool that you’re involved with that mission. The edge of discovery.

Thank you for the kind reply. I was just guessing at it based on knowing it takes light eight minutes from Sun to earth.
Also 'guesstimating' distance from earth to Saturn I figured about an hour or a little more.
Looks like I did get my guess in the 'ol ballpark......as they say...
Pretty good guesstimating, huh?
Thanks Again

I’m one of the mission controllers for Cassini at JPL...the current one-way light time is: 1 H 16 M. Walldog, are you following this "Cassini HD camera" discussion below, and the "all NASA photos of the earth are faked" canard? I thought maybe you could provide some information, at least on any Cassini questions...
