This is an excellent short video about Cassini, the most ambitious inter-planetary space mission ever launched. It was created using clips from Carolyn Porco's speech at the Pop!Tech innovation conference.

I think it's a great video to forward on to friends and family, especially young minds who could be infected with the astronomy and/or science bug.
