The Cassini spacecraft is a challenging and complex system which must balance meeting Mission and Science objectives. This must be performed within the constraints facing the spacecraft design, namely: reliable spacecraft performance of approximately 11 years in the environment of deep space. compatibility with a relatively small operations team, and within a cost gap. This paper presents an overview of the Cassini spacecraft system design with emphasis given to the orbiter and only a high level summary of the probe.
