The singer posted a photo on Instagram that shows her and fellow actress Francia Raisa holding hands across their hospital beds.

"I'm very aware some of my fans had noticed I was laying low for part of the summer and questioning why I wasn't promoting my new music, which I was extremely proud of," Gomez wrote in the caption." "So I found out I needed to get a kidney transplant due to my Lupus and was recovering."

Gomez revealed her Lupus diagnosis in 2015 and last year took some time off as she struggled with the disease as well as anxiety and depression.

The superstar said the transplant was "what I needed to do for my overall health."

She said she looked forward to sharing more with her fans later about her transplant journey, but in the meantime she wanted to thank her health team and Raisa.

"She gave me the ultimate gift and sacrifice by donating her kidney to me," Gomez said. "I am incredibly blessed. I love you so much sis."

Raisa is an actress best known for her role as Adrian Lee on the TV series "The Secret Life of the American Teenager."

On Thursday, Gomez fans swarmed Raisa's latest Instragram photo to thank her for the kidney donation.

"You're amazing," one person commented. "You're one hell of a friend."

According to the United Network for Organ Sharing, last year more than 33,000 transplants were performed in the United States (33,610). More than 13,000 of them were kidney transplants, 5,629 from living donors.

"The damage is complete," Ronald Sanders, the Antigua and Barbuda ambassador to the United States, told Public Radio International. "It's a humanitarian disaster."

"For the first time in 300 years, there's not a single living person on the island of Barbuda -- a civilization that has existed in that island for close to, over 300 years has now been extinguished."

Sanders made similar remarks in an interview with CNN.

Antigua and Barbuda -- located southeast of Puerto Rico and where the Atlantic Ocean and the Caribbean Sea meet -- became a sovereign state in the British commonwealth in 1981. Its population in July was estimated to be 94,731, with 97% of the population living on the island of Antigua, the CIA World Factbook said.

The majority-Christian and the majority-English speaking nation is reliant in large part on travel and tourism and has financial services businesses. But tourism is its bread and butter -- accounting for nearly 60% of its GDP.

When the storm hit, Antigua received minimal damage but the storm obliterated Barbuda's infrastructure, flattening structure after structure. At least one death was reported. Rescuers evacuated residents to Antigua and a state of emergency has been declared.

"We've tried to make living accommodations as good as humanly possible in these circumstances. Fortunately, we had planned ahead for this hurricane, and we had ordered supplies in from Miami and the United States before the hurricane hit," Sanders told PRI.

He told CNN about 1,700 people were evacuated from Barbuda to Antigua and said others went to Antigua on their own.

The living conditions aren't perfect and they can be "cramped," he said. But the evacuees are safe and the young people from Barbuda will be going to school in Antigua, for the time being.

"It's government facilities in which they are being located. We've opened some others. We've taken a nursing home for instance and converted that into accommodation and Antiguans have been very generous in opening their homes to some of the Barbudans, particularly those with young children," he told PRI.

The government believes that while some Barbudans might choose to stay in Antigua even after their island is rebuilt, many will want to go home.

It's a small island, 62 square miles, and its residents have a strong sense of belonging. That's where their ancestors are buried, Sanders said.

"Generations of people have lived on that island. They know nothing else. The commitment to that island is extremely strong. They have a strong sense of who they are," he told CNN.

The government intends to rebuild the island, which will take time. International humanitarian help is needed in what is a gargantuan job, Sanders said, adding that the small island community can't rebuild without such assistance.

Rebuilding

Prominent voices, such as actor Robert de Niro, are urging help for the island. Wealthy individuals have made donations that add up to around $5 million or more and countries have come forward with immediate relief.

The country is thankful for the help but Sanders notes that a few million dollars is a "drop in the bucket." A massive effort is required, he told CNN.

"We're a $1 billion economy facing a $250 million problem," he said. "We need to look at how we get this island back into shape."

He can't give a timetable for any of the steps to rebuild. It all depends on how much funding the country can raise.

The first thing to do now is clean up so construction can start on buildings strong enough to withstand hurricanes.

"The island is not exactly safe for anything to happen," he told CNN, saying it is filled with dead animals, water flies and rubbish everywhere.

Electricity must be re-established and water needs to flow again.

Antigua and Barbuda is in a different situation from other hard-hit Caribbean islands that are territories of larger and richer nations that can step in to help rebuild: the United States, the United Kingdom, France and the Netherlands, for example.

"Antigua is a tiny place, and we have no godfather," Sanders told CNN.

Officials are envisioning assembling a donors conference, he said, where international agencies and nations would plan a rebuilding initiative.

He said it makes sense for larger industrial nations to help out his small and pristine country because of climate change.

"We are the victims of greenhouse gases. We contribute little to pollution," he told CNN. "We are hoping our neighboring countries can respond."

The country would have been hurt even worse if Antigua had taken the same kind of beating from Irma that Barbuda did, Sanders said. But it has been spared and the tourist industry is still functioning well.

"Antigua remains open for business," he told CNN.

Sanders describes the "remarkable beauty" of Barbuda and its beaches.

"Crystal clear water with pink sand beaches. You stand in that water up to your neck and you can look down and see your toes," he said.

While rebuilding Barbuda is a daunting task, the alternative of abandoning the island is "crazy," Sanders said.

It would become a haven for drug traffickers if it is left alone.

"The island has to be secure. It has to be populated. It has to be policed," he told CNN.

London manhunt underway after bomb explosion in subway, the 5th terror attack in Britain this year

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
&#151; -- Britain's terrorist threat level has been lowered from critical to severe after police arrested a second man in connection with Friday's terrorist attack on a London Underground subway car and authorities there cited progress in the investigation.

Britain's Home Secretary Amber Rudd said Sunday that the decision was made "to lower that level from critical to severe," according to The Associated Press.

On Friday, an apparent bucket bomb exploded on a London Underground train at the during the morning rush hour. The blast propelled a fireball through a passenger car, sending at least 30 people to area hospitals, officials said.

Rudd warned that the lowering of classification doesn't mean the danger is over.

"'Severe' still means that an attack is highly likely, so I would urge everybody to continue to be vigilant, but not alarmed," she said, according to the AP.

Assistant Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police Service Mark Rowley added that beyond the overnight arrests, a "rapid progress" in the investigation contributed to the decision to downgrade the threat level.

"There are now two searches continuing at addresses in Surrey, and we are getting a greater understanding of the preparation of the device," he said.

A 21-year-old man was arrested around 11:30 p.m. Saturday in Hounslow, a borough in west London, by detectives with the Metropolitan Police's Counter Terrorism Command. The unidentified man was arrested under section 41 of the U.K.'s Terrorism Act, and taken to a south London police station where he remains in custody.

Earlier Saturday, police had evacuated a house in a London suburb as well as part of the Port of Dover after arresting an 18-year-old man that morning in the southeastern coastal city in connection with the attack, police said.

Kent Police arrested the man in the port's departure area -- about 75 miles from London -- at approximately 7:50 a.m. local time under section 41 of the U.K.'s Terrorism Act, according to London's Metropolitan Police Service. The section provides authorities the power to arrest a person suspected of terrorism-related offenses without a warrant.

"We have made a significant arrest in our investigation this morning," Metropolitan Police Deputy Assistant Commissioner Neil Basu said in a statement. "He was arrested on suspicion of being concerned in the commission, preparation or instigation of acts of terrorism. He has now been transferred to custody at a police station in London."

Today, Rowley provided an update on the Parsons Green investigation and the change to the threat level.

"There is still much more to do but this greater clarity and this progress has led JTAC - the independent body that assess threat - to come to the judgement that an attack is no longer imminent. And you will have heard consequently the Home Secretary's announcement that the threat level has reduced from Critical to Severe which of course means that an attack is highly likely," he said.

Basu said that after they closed the Port of Dover, "they recovered a number of items during this search."

On Saturday afternoon, police evacuated and launched a search of a house in Sunbury-on-Thames, a town in Surrey county 15 miles southwest of central London, in connection with the investigation. Neighbors immediately surrounding the address were also evacuated as a precautionary measure.

"I want to reassure that community that our expert officers are quickly and thoroughly searching that address and working to ensure that it is safe. Once this is done a detailed search will take place," Basu said.

London Mayor Sadiq Khan hailed Saturday morning's arrest.

"This morning police have made a significant arrest as part of the investigation into the terrorist attack at Parsons Green station yesterday morning," Khan said in a statement. "The police investigation is ongoing and there will still be significant activity today and over the days ahead. I am sure I speak for London when I say we are incredibly grateful to the police and intelligence services for doing everything possible to keep Londoners safe."

"London will never be intimidated by terrorism. We will always defeat those who seek to harm us and destroy our way of life," the mayor added.

ISIS claimed responsibility for the attack through its Amag News Agency. Rowley told reporters that it is "routine" for ISIS to claim responsibility for such attacks, whether the group was involved or not.

Authorities had immediately launched a manhunt for suspects. Following Saturday's arrest, the Metropolitan Police Service announced it was still working to identify and locate any other potential suspects.

"At this stage we are keeping an open mind around whether more than one person is responsible for the attack and we are still pursuing numerous lines of inquiry and at a great pace," Basu said in a statement Saturday night. "We have identified 121 witnesses so far, and we have spoken to 100 of them already. Officers continue to trawl through many hours of closed circuit television footage and more than 180 videos and pictures that have been sent to them by the public."

Eyewitnesses told ABC News that the blast happened as the train pulled into the Parsons Green station in Fulham, an affluent, mainly residential area of West London.

"I heard a loud bang and as I looked to my right, there was a flame, a fireball came through the carriage. ... As the doors opened, people then began leaving the train straight away," said Martin Adams, a security manager for The Walt Disney Company who was riding in the subway car at the time. "I saw some flames coming from what I thought was a blue bag."

Another person who was at the station said she saw a number of people with what appeared to be facial burns and singed hair after the explosion.

"I saw a couple people with burns. One lady had her hair badly singed by the fire," said Sally Faulding, who witnessed the panic on the subway platform. "I also saw people injured obviously from having been stampeded on the platform because we were all running. People were falling over."

As of Friday, the London Ambulance Service said it had transported 19 patients to area hospitals and 10 others took themselves, but none of the injuries were serious or life-threatening. On Saturday, the Metropolitan Police Service said a total of 30 people have received treatment at hospitals for injuries from the attack.

Adams said the situation was managed well by train operators and emergency crews, and that passengers remained relatively calm.

"There were no casualties at all on the train. Everybody appeared to get off," Adams told ABC News. "There was nobody laying on the platform floor. I assessed that there were no serious casualties at that time."

Police said the improvised explosive device on the train did not fully explode. Apparent images of the device show wires hanging out of a white bucket.

U.S. President Donald Trump, who has clashed with Khan in the past, shared his thoughts on Twitter just before 7 a.m. ET.

Trump referred to the suspects being "in the sights of Scotland Yard," though London officials have not publicly provided any confirmation of that.

Law enforcement agencies across the United States said they are closely monitoring Friday's incident. New York City Police Commissioner James O'Neill said Friday there were no known threats to the city's subway system, but reminded passengers to remain vigilant and aware of their surroundings.

However, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo released a statement Friday saying he was increasing security in public transportation areas across the Empire State.

"Out of an abundance of caution, I am directing state law enforcement to increase security at vital assets across New York, including airports, bridges, tunnels and mass transit systems," Cuomo said. "The safety and security of New Yorkers is our No. 1 priority, and we remain in close contact with local and federal officials. We remain vigilant, and we stand with the people of London."

Something interesting

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
As robots get more advanced and perform more complicated tasks, such as conducting a philharmonic orchestra in Italy, there is still one thing the machines certainly cannot do: feel. However, if scientists from the University of Houston have anything to say about it, that may change soon, at least insofar as the sense of touch is concerned.

Cunjiang Yu, an assistant professor at the university and three other researchers created "a semiconductor in a rubber composite format" that can stretch and still retain functionality, allowing a robotic hand to feel temperature differences and distinguish between hot and cold. Writing in the journal Science Advances, they described "a new mechanism for producing stretchable electronics, a process that relies upon readily available materials and could be scaled up for commercial production," according to a statement on the university' website.

Semiconductors are usually brittle and incorporating them into stretchable materials usually involves complicated procedures, Yu said in the statement, making the resulting materials both less stable and more expensive than the new material created by his team.

"Our strategy has advantages for simple fabrication, scalable manufacturing, high-density integration, large strain tolerance and low cost," Yu said in the statement.

Other than demonstrating the temperature sensitivity of the material using a robotic hand and hot and cold water, the researchers also showed the artificial skin could interpret computer signals and reproduce them in sign language.

"The robotic skin can translate the gesture to readable letters that a person like me can understand and read," Yu added.

In the open-access paper titled "Rubbery electronics and sensors from intrinsically stretchable elastomeric composites of semiconductors and conductors," the researchers wrote: "Rubbery sensors, which include strain, pressure, and temperature sensors, show reliable sensing capabilities and are exploited as smart skins that enable gesture translation for sign language alphabet and haptic sensing for robotics to illustrate one of the applications of the sensors."

Made using a silicon-based polymer called polydimethylsiloxane and miniscule nanowires (that use gold and silver) to transmit the electric current, the new material has potential applications in a number of other fields beyond robotics, including biomedical devices, medical implants, wearable electronics and other human-machine interfaces.

Even when stretched to one and a half times its size, the material retained over 55 percent of its electrical conductivity. The researchers also wrote in the paper that the speed of thermal response of the material could potentially be improved by using a better thermal system, optimizing the shape and placement of sensors, and improving thermal conductivity by infusing it with other additives like graphene or carbon nanotubes.

"We foresee that this strategy of enabling elastomeric semiconductors by percolating semiconductor nanofibrils into a rubber will advance the development of stretchable semiconductors, and the approach to constructing electronics and sensors all from elastomeric electronic materials will move forward the advancement of stretchable electronics for a wide range of applications, such as artificial skins, biomedical implants, and surgical gloves," the researchers concluded.

RANDLEMAN, N.C. -- Police found a malnourished 5-year-old girl locked in a small closet under the stairway of a North Carolina home, according to a press release.

On Sept. 12, police conducted a welfare check for a child at a home in the 200 block of Back Street in Randleman, according to WGHP. Police had been told a child living there was being physically and mentally abused.

At first, it appeared no one was home - there were no vehicles in the driveway and no one responded to the officers' knocks. When police began calling the child's name, however, they heard a voice from inside.

They first asked the child if she was OK and the girl said "no." Officers then asked if she needed help and she replied, "yes."

The officers then entered through a front porch window and found the child locked in a 2-by-4-foot closet under a stairway. She had no food or water and appeared to be extremely malnourished with burns, scratches, and bruises all over her body.

The 5-year-old was taken from the home by a daycare employee. She was taken to Randolph Hospital and transferred to Brenner's Children's Hospital.

She is currently in the custody of the Randolph County Department of Social Services.

Police arrested Adam Joshua Byrd, the child's father, and Crystal Dawn Carnahan, who is described as a caretaker.

Byrd is charged with assault with a deadly weapon serious injury, intentional child abuse serious physical injury and negligent child abuse serious physical injury.

Carnahan is charged with assault with deadly weapon serious injury, intentional child abuse serious physical injury and negligent child abuse serious physical injury.

Both were taken to the Randolph County Jail on a $350,000 secured bond.

Wall Street is predicting that Amazon will ruin retailing even more with the new technologies AMZN and Tech30

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
It's obviously a terrible time to be a brick-and-mortar retailer. But Wall Street is betting that things will get even worse for department stores and retailers.

Investors are placing huge wagers that the one-two punch of Amazon and fast fashion will knock out more and more stores in the months and years to come.

Not surprisingly, retail is the most hated industry in the entire stock market. That's based on Bespoke Investment Group stats on the average percentage of shares that investors are betting against, or shorting.

Unfortunately for retail employees and investors, that's been a winning trade. Anemic sales have forced hundreds of store closures, countless retail bankruptcies and tens of thousands of layoffs. Along the way, retail stocks have gotten crushed.

Consider that two-thirds of Macy's market value has vanished over the past two years, and JCPenney is down 90% since early 2012. Sears , which also owns Kmart, has warned there's "substantial doubt" it will survive.

Related: Retail apocalypse continues at department stores

But Wall Street thinks the bleeding will get worse. Investors are more negative on the retail industry than any time since September 2008, according to Bespoke stats on the average percentage of shares being shorted. Keep in mind that was the same month that Lehman Brothers went bankrupt, raising the specter of financial Armageddon.

Shorting a stock typically means borrowing it from a broker and immediately selling it, in the hopes it can be bought back at an even lower price. It's a very risky strategy that can backfire very quickly if the stock keeps rising.

On average, 15.6% of the shares among retailers are being shorted. That's considered a very high level.

All of this doom-and-gloom is driven by dramatic shifts in consumer behavior. Americans are increasingly shunning the mall in favor of Amazon and other sites to get their shopping done. At the same time, the stores that have survived are having a very hard time competing with fast fashion brands like Zara and H&M.

These trends have made Wall Street especially bearish about multiline retailers, which include department stores like Macy's and general merchandise chains such as Kohls . Bespoke said that shorting among this group has more than doubled since the end of last year to "absurdly high" levels that are similar to what banks experienced "during the height of the financial crisis."

Of course, just because investors are betting against a stock doesn't mean it will go down. Just ask the countless bears circling Tesla . Elon Musk has even teased his critics, joking on Twitter in April on Twitter about "stormy weather in Shortville."

And the bets against retail may indicate the death-of-retail trade has become too "crowded." Often when many investors expect something to happen, it doesn't.

There are also some bright spots in the retail landscape. Consider Best Buy. Some feared the electronics chain would get killed by Amazon, but this year Best Buy stock (up 37%) is actually beating the Jeff Bezos juggernaut.

Eleven-year-old yard services entrepreneur Frank Giaccio locked down his biggest client ever Friday morning, mowing the White House lawn on the invitation of President Trump.

White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders tweeted a photo of Giaccio taking care of business Friday morning.

"Frank is hard at work in the Rose Garden and doing a great job!" she wrote.

Sanders announced earlier this week that "Frank from Falls Church, Virginia" would help the grounds crew cut the Rose Garden grass.

Trump accepted the Virginia boy's offer after he wrote to the president saying it would be his "honor to mow the White House lawn." Giaccio also enclosed a menu of his services, which include weed-whacking.

Giaccio told Fox Business Network's "Mornings with Maria" earlier Friday, "So far it's pretty much the best day of my life."

The White House later tweeted a photo of Trump walking alongside Giaccio on the lawn.

22 injured in this bucket bombing on a packed subway train during rush hour traffic. Rumors saying bomb could have been way bigger.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
A manhunt was underway for any suspects linked to the bucket bomb that detonated on a packed subway train during Friday morning rush hour, injuring at least 29 people.

A source confirmed to Fox News that an ISIS affiliate took responsibility for the attack.

Police quickly called the explosion on the District Line train at Parsons Green station a "terrorist incident." It was the fifth terrorist attack in Britain this year.

Hours after the attack, officials in the United Kingdom raised the country's terrorism threat level to "critical" - the highest possible threat which means another attack is expected shortly.

Police said they have not arrested anyone in connection to the bombing, but hundreds of detectives were trying to hunt down the perpetrator or perpetrators.

The Metropolitan Police force said police "are making fast-time inquiries to establish who was responsible and are working closely with the security services."

Counterterrorism policing chief Mark Rowley said hundreds of detectives were scanning surveillance camera footage, carrying out forensic work and speaking to witnesses.

Scotland Yard said an improvised explosive device was used in the attack, and London's Metropolitan Police counter-terrorism unit was also investigating; however, police did not immediately provide any details on any suspects.

The ambulance service said at least one of the injuries was thought to be serious or life-threatening and most of the injuries were flash burns.

Passengers reported seeing people with burns to their faces and bodies after the "massive flash of flames" on the tube station.

Peter Crowley, a passenger, told the BBC: "I heard a large bang from the doors on the other side of the tube train and this fireball came towards my heard and singed off all my hair - I have got burn marks at the top of my head. Everyone just ran off the train, it was quite scary."

"It was a really hot intense fireball above my head, I've just got red marks and burns to the top of my head. There were a lot of people a lot worse than me."

Photos taken inside a District Line train showed a white plastic bucket inside a supermarket shopping bag with flames and what appear to be wires visible.

Explosive experts told the Daily Mail that they were investigating the bucket and said if it exploded properly it could have killed dozens of people. The BBC reported that the homemade device contained a timer.

Police advised people to avoid the area.

"Our city utterly condemns the hideous individuals who attempt to use terror to harm us and destroy our way of life," London Mayor Sadiq Khan said in a statement. "As London has proven again and again, we will never be intimidated or defeated by terrorism."

"My thoughts are with those injured at Parsons Green and emergency services who are responding bravely to this terrorist incident," British Prime Minister Theresa May tweeted.

Police said it was "too early to confirm the cause of the fire, which will be subject to the investigation that is now underway by the Met's Counter Terrorism Command."

The London Ambulance Service said it was called in at 8:20 a.m. local time and dispatched multiple resources to the scene, including a hazardous area response team.

"Our initial priority is to assess the level and nature of injuries," a statement read.

President Trump tweeted about the attack, which he said was perpetrated by a "loser terrorist."

"Another attack in London by a loser terrorist.These are sick and demented people who were in the sights of Scotland Yard. Must be proactive!" Trump wrote. "Loser terrorists must be dealt with in a much tougher manner.The internet is their main recruitment tool which we must cut off & use better!"

May said speculation about the incident was unhelpful following Trump's tweets.

"I never think it's helpful for anybody to speculate on what is an ongoing investigation," May said.

London police have declined to comment on Trump's suggestion that it knew about the attacker.

Richard Aylmer-Hall, 53, who was on the train when the blast occurred, said he saw people injured after being trampled.

"There was a woman on the platform who said she had seen a bag, a flash and a bang, so obviously something had gone off," he said. "Some people got pushed over and trampled on, I saw two women being treated by ambulance crews."

Hall said he didn't believe anyone was injured by the actual device.

"It was an absolutely packed, rush-hour District Line train from Wimbledon to Edgware Road. I saw crying women, there was lots of shouting and screaming, there was a bit of a crush on the stairs going down to the streets," he told Sky News.

Emma Stevie, a passenger on the train during the fire, told the BBC she became mixed in a "human stampede."

"I wedged myself in next to a railing, I put myself in the fetal position," she said.

"There was a pregnant woman underneath me, and I was trying really hard not to crush her.

"I saw a poor little boy with a smashed-in head and other injuries. It was horrible.

"The injuries from the stampede seemed the worst. I'm outside now, there are women crying and people sitting on the floor."

British Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson said people should "keep calm and go about their normal lives" following the incident, adding that it would be "wrong to speculate."

May said Britain's official threat level from terrorism remained at "severe," meaning an attack is highly likely, and has not been raised in the wake of the bombing.

The London Underground itself has been targeted several times in the past, notably in July 2005, when suicide bombers blew themselves up on three subway trains and a bus, killing 52 people and themselves. Four more bombers tried a similar attack two weeks later, but their devices failed to detonate fully.

Before launching it's new D850 camera, Nikon had 32 clients test the camera, zero being female.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Oh, Nikon.

The Japanese camera maker is under fire for hosting an advertising event that featured 32 professional photographers testing its new D850 camera.

One problem: All 32 photographers were men.

The absence of women was first spotted by photography blog Fstoppers.com, which sarcastically asked whether the camera was designed specifically for men.

A fierce backlash followed on social media.

"Hey Nikon: are you planning to release a version of the D850 for women? A pink one, maybe?" Juan Carlos Munoz, an amateur photographer, asked on Twitter.

Photojournalist Leah Voss also voiced her disappointment: "As a lifelong @NikonUSA shooter, this profile on 32 all male photographers is pretty disheartening."

Nikon said in a statement that it wanted to "thank the community for raising this and challenging us."

"Unfortunately, the female photographers we had invited for this meet were unable to attend, and we acknowledge we have not put enough of a focus on this area," it added.

Nikon did not respond to questions about how many women were invited.

13 year long mission to saturn ends today because cassini's spacecraft is landing in the planet. It will collect datas long as the antenna is pointed in earth's direction.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
In the early morning hours of September 15, NASA's 13-year mission exploring Saturn and its moons will come to an end as the spacecraft deliberately dives into Saturn's atmosphere and plunges itself into the planet.

Even then, Cassini will transmit new data about the planet's composition as long as its antenna remains pointed toward Earth, with the assist from small thrusters. No spacecraft has ever been so close to Saturn.

"You can think of Cassini as the first Saturn probe," said Linda Spilker, Cassini project scientist.

The Ion and Neutral Mass Spectrometer will act as the "nose" of the spacecraft, directly sampling the composition and structure of the atmosphere -- something that can't be done from orbit, said Hunter Waite, team lead for the spectrometer.

It will also investigate the "ring rain" phenomenon discovered by NASA's Voyager mission in the early 1980s, where it appeared that the rings were raining down material on the planet and causing changes in the atmosphere. The spectrometer will attempt to investigate what material is from the rings and what material is part of the atmosphere.

But contact will quickly be lost once the spacecraft enters Saturn's atmosphere at a high speed. About two minutes later, Cassini will burn and disintegrate completely -- any traces of it will melt due to the heat and high pressure of the giant planet's hostile atmosphere.

This will likely happen around 6:30 a.m. Eastern Time for the spacecraft, but given the time it takes for the signal to reach Earth, we will receive those last bits of data just before 8 a.m. -- long after Cassini is "gone."

"The spacecraft's final signal will be like an echo," said Earl Maize, Cassini project manager. "It will radiate across the solar system for nearly an hour and a half after Cassini itself has gone."

Why the dramatic ending?

Cassini had its closest approach with Saturn's moon Titan on Monday, dubbed a "goodbye kiss" by the mission's engineers because it provides the gravity assist that sends it on its final encounter with Saturn.

Mission scientists and operators are giving Cassini this fiery send-off on purpose. While many other options were considered -- such as "parking" the spacecraft in orbit around Saturn -- they didn't want to risk Cassini colliding with any of Saturn's moons.

Cassini data and observations revealed that while seemingly inhospitable to us, two of Saturn's moons, Enceladus and Titan, could be potentially habitable for some form of life. And NASA didn't want to risk contaminating the moons or any future studies of the moonswith Earth particles. Although Cassini has been in space for 20 years -- seven spent traveling to Saturn, 13 within the Saturn system -- microbes from Earth could still viably exist on the spacecraft without air, water or protection from radiation.

While the mission itself is ending, the data and observations provided by Cassini will provide new details about the planet, its unique rings and moons for decades to come.

Cassini's grand finale actually began in April, with a series of dives between Saturn's rings, close to the planet and its moons, providing unprecedented insight. This is another reason the mission scientists decided on Cassini's particular end-game. The final dive on Friday is a dramatic conclusion to this unique, long and scientifically valuable goodbye.

What Cassini taught us and what's next

Inspired to learn more after flybys of Saturn by NASA's Voyager missions, the Cassini mission was designed to be an international effort that united NASA, the European Space Agency (ESA) and the Italian Space Agency.

It is known as the Cassini-Huygens mission because it delivered ESA's Huygens probe to Titan -- the "first descent and landing on a world in the outer solar system," according to NASA.

The Cassini mission, which arrived at the Saturn system in 2004, has been extended twice and will finally use up the last of its rocket propellant this week.

In the end, Cassini will have witnessed half of a Saturn year. A year on Saturn equals nearly 30 Earth years. When Cassini arrived, the northern hemisphere of Saturn was emerging from winter. As seasons on Saturn last about seven Earth years each, Cassini was just able to witness summer in the northern hemisphere before the mission ends.

Over the years, Cassini has revealed new insight about Saturn, its rings and how they operate, the complexities of Saturn's moons, the history of the solar system and planet formation and even the other places in our solar system where life might exist -- ocean worlds. Cassini has collected 450,000 images using a visible light camera.

When Cassini arrived, it witnessed a giant storm circling the planet for nine months. We learned there are 3-D structures in the rings. Serendipitous observations showed that icy jets erupt from Enceladus. And Titan not only has seas and lakes of liquid ethane and methane, but an atmosphere of chemicals that rain down, forming a unique chemistry that could lead to life.

"Cassini has transformed our thinking in so many ways, but especially with regard to surprising places in the solar system where life could potentially gain a foothold," said Thomas Zurbuchen, associate administrator for NASA's Science Mission Directorate, in a statement.

And the spacecraft itself, as well as its instruments, are informing future missions that NASA has planned, like NASA's Europa Clipper mission to explore Jupiter's icy moon, launching in the 2020s.

"Cassini has enabled those future missions to be possible," said Jim Green, NASA's director of planetary science.

Intrigued by Cassini's discoveries, scientists have submitted concepts for future "spacecraft to drift on the methane seas of Titan and fly through the Enceladus plume to collect and analyze samples for signs of biology" that are currently under consideration, according to NASA.

An explosion was set off in a London subway station Friday morning. It has been guessed that it is a terrorist attack, making it the 5th one in Britain this year. At least 22 people were sent to a hospital.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Britain's terrorist threat level has been lowered from critical to severe after police arrested a second man in connection with Friday's terrorist attack on a London Underground subway car and authorities there cited progress in the investigation.

Interested in London?

Add London as an interest to stay up to date on the latest London news, video, and analysis from ABC News.

Britain's Home Secretary Amber Rudd said Sunday that the decision was made "to lower that level from critical to severe," according to The Associated Press.

On Friday, an apparent bucket bomb exploded on a London Underground train at the during the morning rush hour. The blast propelled a fireball through a passenger car, sending at least 30 people to area hospitals, officials said.

Rudd warned that the lowering of classification doesn't mean the danger is over.

"'Severe' still means that an attack is highly likely, so I would urge everybody to continue to be vigilant, but not alarmed," she said, according to the AP.

Assistant Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police Service Mark Rowley added that beyond the overnight arrests, a "rapid progress" in the investigation contributed to the decision to downgrade the threat level.

"There are now two searches continuing at addresses in Surrey, and we are getting a greater understanding of the preparation of the device," he said.

A 21-year-old man was arrested around 11:30 p.m. Saturday in Hounslow, a borough in west London, by detectives with the Metropolitan Police's Counter Terrorism Command. The unidentified man was arrested under section 41 of the U.K.'s Terrorism Act, and taken to a south London police station where he remains in custody.

Earlier Saturday, police had evacuated a house in a London suburb as well as part of the Port of Dover after arresting an 18-year-old man that morning in the southeastern coastal city in connection with the attack, police said.

Kent Police arrested the man in the port's departure area -- about 75 miles from London -- at approximately 7:50 a.m. local time under section 41 of the U.K.'s Terrorism Act, according to London's Metropolitan Police Service. The section provides authorities the power to arrest a person suspected of terrorism-related offenses without a warrant.

"We have made a significant arrest in our investigation this morning," Metropolitan Police Deputy Assistant Commissioner Neil Basu said in a statement. "He was arrested on suspicion of being concerned in the commission, preparation or instigation of acts of terrorism. He has now been transferred to custody at a police station in London."

Today, Rowley provided an update on the Parsons Green investigation and the change to the threat level.

"There is still much more to do but this greater clarity and this progress has led JTAC - the independent body that assess threat - to come to the judgement that an attack is no longer imminent. And you will have heard consequently the Home Secretary's announcement that the threat level has reduced from Critical to Severe which of course means that an attack is highly likely," he said.

Basu said that after they closed the Port of Dover, "they recovered a number of items during this search."

On Saturday afternoon, police evacuated and launched a search of a house in Sunbury-on-Thames, a town in Surrey county 15 miles southwest of central London, in connection with the investigation. Neighbors immediately surrounding the address were also evacuated as a precautionary measure.

"I want to reassure that community that our expert officers are quickly and thoroughly searching that address and working to ensure that it is safe. Once this is done a detailed search will take place," Basu said.

London Mayor Sadiq Khan hailed Saturday morning's arrest.

"This morning police have made a significant arrest as part of the investigation into the terrorist attack at Parsons Green station yesterday morning," Khan said in a statement. "The police investigation is ongoing and there will still be significant activity today and over the days ahead. I am sure I speak for London when I say we are incredibly grateful to the police and intelligence services for doing everything possible to keep Londoners safe."

"London will never be intimidated by terrorism. We will always defeat those who seek to harm us and destroy our way of life," the mayor added.

ISIS claimed responsibility for the attack through its Amag News Agency. Rowley told reporters that it is "routine" for ISIS to claim responsibility for such attacks, whether the group was involved or not.

Authorities had immediately launched a manhunt for suspects. Following Saturday's arrest, the Metropolitan Police Service announced it was still working to identify and locate any other potential suspects.

"At this stage we are keeping an open mind around whether more than one person is responsible for the attack and we are still pursuing numerous lines of inquiry and at a great pace," Basu said in a statement Saturday night. "We have identified 121 witnesses so far, and we have spoken to 100 of them already. Officers continue to trawl through many hours of closed circuit television footage and more than 180 videos and pictures that have been sent to them by the public."

Eyewitnesses told ABC News that the blast happened as the train pulled into the Parsons Green station in Fulham, an affluent, mainly residential area of West London.

"I heard a loud bang and as I looked to my right, there was a flame, a fireball came through the carriage. ... As the doors opened, people then began leaving the train straight away," said Martin Adams, a security manager for The Walt Disney Company who was riding in the subway car at the time. "I saw some flames coming from what I thought was a blue bag."

Another person who was at the station said she saw a number of people with what appeared to be facial burns and singed hair after the explosion.

"I saw a couple people with burns. One lady had her hair badly singed by the fire," said Sally Faulding, who witnessed the panic on the subway platform. "I also saw people injured obviously from having been stampeded on the platform because we were all running. People were falling over."

As of Friday, the London Ambulance Service said it had transported 19 patients to area hospitals and 10 others took themselves, but none of the injuries were serious or life-threatening. On Saturday, the Metropolitan Police Service said a total of 30 people have received treatment at hospitals for injuries from the attack.

Adams said the situation was managed well by train operators and emergency crews, and that passengers remained relatively calm.

"There were no casualties at all on the train. Everybody appeared to get off," Adams told ABC News. "There was nobody laying on the platform floor. I assessed that there were no serious casualties at that time."

Police said the improvised explosive device on the train did not fully explode. Apparent images of the device show wires hanging out of a white bucket.

U.S. President Donald Trump, who has clashed with Khan in the past, shared his thoughts on Twitter just before 7 a.m. ET.

Another attack in London by a loser terrorist. These are sick and demented people who were in the sights of Scotland Yard. Must be proactive!
- Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 15, 2017

Trump referred to the suspects being "in the sights of Scotland Yard," though London officials have not publicly provided any confirmation of that.

Law enforcement agencies across the United States said they are closely monitoring Friday's incident. New York City Police Commissioner James O'Neill said Friday there were no known threats to the city's subway system, but reminded passengers to remain vigilant and aware of their surroundings.

However, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo released a statement Friday saying he was increasing security in public transportation areas across the Empire State.

"Out of an abundance of caution, I am directing state law enforcement to increase security at vital assets across New York, including airports, bridges, tunnels and mass transit systems," Cuomo said. "The safety and security of New Yorkers is our No. 1 priority, and we remain in close contact with local and federal officials. We remain vigilant, and we stand with the people of London."

A Financial Times journalist was killed by a crocodile while washing his hands at a lagoon in Sri Lanka during a holiday with pals.

Paul McClean, 25, an Oxford University graduate, is understood to have wandered away from his group of friends to find a toilet when he was attacked.

The British victim is believed to have been dragged under water at a lagoon called Crocodile Rock near a popular surf spot after being ambushed by the reptile.

McClean graduated from Oxford with a First class honors degree in French in 2015 before joining the Financial Times later that year.

He had covered Brexit and the European Union for the newspaper and had recently returned to London after living in Brussels for a couple of months.

The lagoon, known to be crawling with crocodiles, is yards away from popular surf spot Elephant Rock near Arugam Bay on the southeast coast.

Sri Lankan police and the army are said to be searching the shore surrounding the area.

Locals claimed the victim had been staying at the East Beach Surf Resort - located just minutes away from the surfing area he went missing from.

Fawas Lafeer, owner of Safa Surf School, located up the coast from where the incident happened, said: "A local fisherman witnessed a man being dragged into a river, set back from the beach, by a crocodile. The fisherman was on the opposite side of the river and downstream of the incident location."

He added:"This is the first known crocodile attack in Sri Lanka. Both tourists and locals surf at Elephant Rock, which is a beautiful secluded beach and very safe.

"Crocodiles in Sri Lanka live only in the fresh, back waters of the jungle. It is almost unheard of for them to come close to the beach. The salt water actually turns them blind.

"Local search and rescue teams are working alongside the police and British Embassy in attempt to locate the man's body."

Meanwhile, a Scottish tourist, who wishes to remain anonymous, said: "A British tourist was at a surf spot called Elephant rock.

"There's a lagoon right next to the sea. He went to the toilet next to the lagoon and was grabbed by a crocodile.

"There are lots in the lagoon. People last saw his arms in the air in the water and then was grabbed under. I was there but didn't see it happen though. Horrible."

New addition to the New Orleans Saints, Adrian Peterson, got in an argument with head coach Sean Peyton of the Saints this past Sunday. Adrian argued with him over not getting the ball enough, for he was only used 9 times.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
New Orleans Saints Joseph Zucker Hannah Foslien/Getty Images Twitter Logo Featured Columnist
New Orleans Saints running back Adrian Peterson commented on his low usage in his team's 29-19 defeat to the Minnesota Vikings on Monday.

"I didn't sign up for nine snaps, though, but unfortunately that's the way the game played out," Peterson said Thursday, per USA Today's Kevin Spain. "In my mind, personally, I knew it was gonna take some adjusting. You know, me and Mark [Ingram] played in the last preseason game, and [Alvin Kamara] didn't even play that game. So with all three of us being out there, I knew it would take a game or so to kind of get adjusted."

Peterson also acknowledged what appeared to be a heated moment between he and Saints head coach Sean Peyton during the game.

The seven-time Pro Bowler said the exchange was "definitely overdramatized."

Peterson ran for 18 yards on six carries in the loss. According to Pro Football Reference, his carry total tied a career low, and his rushing total tied his third-worst output.

Peterson was a somewhat surprising addition to a Saints team that was welcoming back Ingram, who hit 1,000-plus rushing yards for the first time in his NFL career in 2016. New Orleans also traded up in the third round of the 2017 draft to select Kamara.

And it's not like the running game has been a staple of the Saints offense since Drew Brees took over at quarterback. Even at 37, he led the NFL in passing attempts (673) in 2016.

Perhaps New Orleans saw signing Peterson and picking up Kamara as a way to take some pressure off Brees as he approaches what may be the twilight of his career. Still, finding a way to keep Ingram, Peterson and Kamara happy won't be easy for Payton, and the Vikings game was evidence of that.

A man was scammed, $22,000 after being hired for a fake job. An employer did not meet him person and the man had to pay for office equipment out of his own pocket

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
WESTLAKE, Ohio -

You might be looking for a job, but scammers are looking to rip you off. It's happened in a devastating way to a young man from Westlake.

Police Captain Guy Turner said the young man was searching for work online. The supposed employer hired him after emails and a phone call. Capt. Turner said that is the first red flag.

"Nobody hires anybody without an in-person meeting," he said.

The victim, who didn't want to go on camera with us, thought he was going to be a project manager, but he first had to buy office equipment with his own money and pay in iTunes gift cards.

Those are red flags two and three.

"No employer should ever ask you to use your personal funds to support your job," said Capt. Turner. "(And) nobody does business with Apple iTunes cards."

However, the scammers reimbursed the man with checks. He thought they were legit. So, the young man was excited driving in for his first day of work. The scammers told him to come to an office in downtown Cleveland that doesn't exist.

"And then, of course, they cut off contact with him," said Capt. Turner. "Then the final coupe de Gras - they reversed all the reimbursements that they had provided to him so he ended up being out $22,000."

And, to add insult to injury, that supposed office where the victim went for his first day of work is located right across from the Justice Center.

Is there anything victims can do?

Jon Miller Steiger from the Cleveland office of the Federal Trade Commission told us if you ever get scammed make sure you report it to the FTC. It might help get you justice.

"We share this with law enforcement in Ohio, the Ohio Attorney General's Office, criminal law enforcement all around the country look at the same database," said Steiger.

The FTC also suggests that before you post any of your information on a job site, make sure you investigate that site first. Also, knock around the job offer with your family and friends before you make any decisions to accept.

All activities at LSU suspended due to the death of a freshman pledge.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
All Greek activities were suspended at Louisiana State University on Thursday after a freshman pledge died in what is being investigated as a hazing incident.

The school announced that freshman Maxwell Gruver, 18, from Roswell, Georgia, died Thursday morning in what LSU media relations director Ernie Ballard termed a "potential hazing incident" at the Phi Delta Theta chapter on campus.

LSU President F. King Alexander announced late Thursday that all Greek activities at the school would be suspended pending a thorough investigation of the incident.

Officials couldn't offer specifics, but said the involvement of alcohol was being investigated.

"We in the LSU community are grieving today," Alexander said at a press conference Thursday. "The death of Maxwell Gruver was tragic and untimely. A young man's life was cut short last night and we mourn the loss and the possible impact he may have had on our region and the world. Our deepest sympathies and prayers go to his family and his friends. There are allegations that Maxwell's death, there are allegations that they were related to hazing, but I want to emphasize that this is an evolving situation. We are investigating this matter with the utmost seriousness. As we have continually warned over and over again, hazing is dangerous, irresponsible and unacceptable and it will not be accepted at LSU, period."

ABCNews.com

He went on, "Alcohol is indeed part of the allegations, but that's part of the investigation."

Louisiana State University Police confirmed to ABC News that it was investigating Gruver's death as a potential hazing incident involving Phi Delta Theta.

"Maxwell was transported to Our Lady of the Lake [Thursday] morning for a medical emergency and was later pronounced dead at the hospital," a police spokesman wrote to ABC News today. "The case is currently under investigation."

The suspension of LSU's Greek activities comes as campuses nationwide are taking a tough stance on alcohol abuse and hazing following high-profile incidents like the alcohol-related hazing death of Tim Piazza, 19, at Penn State's now-closed Beta Theta Pi house. The incident led to criminal charges for 14 members of his fraternity.

In addition to LSU suspending all fraternities and sororities, the national chapter of Phi Delta Theta said it would follow suit.

"Phi Delta Theta general headquarters is investigating the Louisiana Beta Chapter at Louisiana State University following a tragic event that resulted in the passing of prospective member, Maxwell Gruver," the Phi Delta Theta said in a statement posted to its website.

"As a result of this incident, the fraternity has suspended the operations at the chapter pending a thorough investigation into the events that led up to this heartbreaking incident," the statement continued.

We have lost contact with Cassini after its death dive into Saturn. Cassini purposely dove into Saturn's atmosphere yesterday around 6 a.m. Because of how long it takes information to travel through space we received its last communications today.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
The spacecraft deliberately sank into Saturn's upper atmosphere at a high speed and plunged itself into the planet just after 6:30a.m. ET Friday. Given the amount of time it takes signals to reach Earth, the final signal and last bits of data reached the Deep Space Network's Canberra Station in Australia about an hour and a half later.

NASA confirmed the spacecraft's demise at 7:55 a.m. ET, as predicted.

For about a minute, Cassini was able to transmit new data about the planet's composition as long as its antenna remained pointed toward Earth, with the assist from small thrusters. Then, the spacecraft burned and disintegrated due to the heat and high pressure of the hostile atmosphere. It became part of the planet it set out to explore.

"It was a perfect spacecraft," said Julie Webster, spacecraft operations chief. "Right to the end, it did everything we asked it to. It's perfect, it's perfect."

No spacecraft has ever been so close to Saturn. The last few seconds of the Cassini mission provided the "first taste" of the atmosphere of Saturn, NASA said.

"You can think of Cassini as the first Saturn probe," said Linda Spilker, Cassini project scientist.

On Thursday, Cassini took its last images and transmitted all the data on its recorder to prepare for the final plunge. The final data from Friday is already being processed and analyzed.

For the team behind the mission, losing their spacecraft is bittersweet: Many are sad that the mission is over but excited to see the groundbreaking science provided by unprecedented proximity to Saturn during the final dive.

"The Cassini operations team did an absolutely stellar job guiding the spacecraft to its noble end," said Earl Maize, Cassini project manager. "From designing the trajectory seven years ago, to navigating through the 22 nail-biting plunges between Saturn and its rings, this is a crack shot group of scientists and engineers that scripted a fitting end to a great mission. What a way to go. Truly a blaze of glory."

The team members that have worked together from concept to the final minutes exchanged hugs and tears in Mission Control at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in California after the loss of signal was confirmed.

"Things never will be quite the same for those of us on the Cassini team now that the spacecraft is no longer flying," Spilker said. "But, we take comfort knowing that every time we look up at Saturn in the night sky, part of Cassini will be there, too."

After launching in 1997 and reaching the Saturn system in 2004, Cassini spent 13 years exploring the planet and its moons. The data and images led to numerous discoveries that changed how scientists think about our solar system.

"A superb machine in an amazing place doing everything possible to reveal the mysteries and secrets of our solar system," Maize said. "This morning, a lone explorer, a machine made by humankind, finished its mission 900 million miles away. To the very end, the spacecraft did everything we asked. We believe we got every last second of data. We have indeed accomplished everything we set out to do."

Why the dramatic ending?

Cassini had its closest approach with Saturn's moon Titan on Monday, dubbed a "goodbye kiss" by the mission's engineers because it provided the gravity assist that sent the spacecraft on its final encounter with Saturn.

Mission scientists and operators gave Cassini this fiery send-off on purpose. Although many other options were considered -- such as "parking" the spacecraft in orbit -- they didn't want to risk Cassini colliding with any of Saturn's moons.

Cassini data and observations revealed that while seemingly inhospitable to us, the moons Enceladus and Titan could be habitable for some form of life. And NASA didn't want to risk contaminating the moons or any future studies of themwith Earth particles. Although Cassini has been in space for 20 years, microbes from Earth could still exist on the spacecraft without air, water or protection from radiation.

Although the mission itself has ended, the data and observations provided by Cassini will provide new details about the planet, its unique rings and its moons for decades to come.

"Cassini may be gone, but its scientific bounty will keep us occupied for many years," Spilker said. "We've only scratched the surface of what we can learn from the mountain of data it has sent back over its lifetime."

During the final plunge, the Ion and Neutral Mass Spectrometer acted as the "nose" of the spacecraft, directly sampling the composition and structure of the atmosphere -- something that can't be done from orbit, said Hunter Waite, team lead for the spectrometer.

This was in the hopes of investigating the "ring rain" phenomenon discovered by NASA's Voyager mission in the early 1980s, in which it appeared that the rings were raining down material on the planet and causing changes in the atmosphere. The spectrometer could determine what material is from the rings and what material is part of the atmosphere.

Cassini's grand finale actually began in April, with a series of dives between Saturn's rings, close to the planet and its moons, providing unprecedented insight. This is another reason the mission scientists decided on Cassini's particular end-game: The final dive was a dramatic conclusion to this long and scientifically valuable goodbye.

What Cassini taught us and what's next

Inspired to learn more after flybys of Saturn by NASA's Voyager missions, the Cassini mission was designed to be an international effort that united NASA, the European Space Agency and the Italian Space Agency.

It is known as the Cassini-Huygens mission because it delivered the European agency's Huygens probe to Titan, the "first descent and landing on a world in the outer solar system," according to NASA.

The Cassini mission has been extended twice and finally used up the last of its rocket propellant this week.

In the end, Cassini witnessed about half of a Saturn year. When the craft arrived, Saturn's northern hemisphere was emerging from winter. As seasons on Saturn last about seven Earth years each, Cassini was just able to witness summer in the northern hemisphere before the mission ended.

Over the years, Cassini has revealed insights about Saturn, its rings and how they operate, the complexities of its moons, the history of the solar system and planet formation and even the other places in our solar system where life might exist: ocean worlds. Cassini has collected more than 450,000 images using a visible light camera.

It has traveled nearly five billion miles, executed 2.5 million commands, conducted 162 targeted flybys of Saturn's moons, completed 294 orbits and its collected data has led to the publication of nearly 4,000 research papers.

When Cassini arrived, it witnessed a giant storm circling the planet for nine months. We learned that there are 3-D structures in the rings. Serendipitous observations showed that icy jets erupt from Enceladus. And Titan not only has seas and lakes of liquid ethane and methane, it has an atmosphere of chemicals that rain down, forming a unique chemistry that could lead to life.

"This is the final chapter of an amazing mission, but it's also a new beginning," said Thomas Zurbuchen, associate administrator for NASA's Science Mission Directorate. "Cassini's discovery of ocean worlds at Titan and Enceladus changed everything, shaking our views to the core about surprising places to search for potential life beyond Earth."

And the spacecraft itself, as well as its instruments, are informing future missions like NASA's Europa Clipper mission to explore Jupiter's icy moon, launching in the 2020s.

"Cassini has enabled those future missions to be possible," said Jim Green, NASA's director of planetary science.

NASA's New Frontiers competition has called for proposals that include future missions to the Saturn system. The proposals include a Saturn probe that explore the planet deeper than Cassini. Intrigued by Cassini's discoveries, scientists have submitted concepts for future "spacecraft to drift on the methane seas of Titan and fly through the Enceladus plume to collect and analyze samples for signs of biology," according to NASA.

Finalists will be announced at the end of the year, and NASA will explore those mission concepts further.

"For future missions to Saturn, there are a lot of possibilities," Spilker said. "One certainly involves the tiny moon Enceladus and the potential for life in that global ocean. The potential for astrobiology in the ocean on Titan. There's questions about the rings -- can we get even closer and understand those individual ring particles? Lots of questions remain, so that's why we have to go back."

Cassini, NASA's 13-year Saturn mission, has ended

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.description
The spacecraft deliberately sank into Saturn's upper atmosphere at a high speed and plunged itself into the planet just after 6:30a.m. ET Friday. Given the amount of time it takes signals to reach Earth, the final signal and last bits of data reached the Deep Space Network's Canberra Station in Australia about an hour and a half later.

An 11 year old boy sent Trump a letter asking to mow the lawn at the White House, Trump agreed and spent time with him during and after the mowing. The boy was there for a press release where he was questioned about mowing their lawns.

An 11-year-old boy who asked the White House if he could mow the property's lawn was granted his wish Friday.

Frank Giaccio told CNN's "New Day" he even waived his usual $8 fee for President Donald Trump -- even though anchor Alisyn Camerota noted that the billionaire chief executive could probably afford the fee.

"I always wanted to do something big and so I was like, 'Why don't we just start here?' This seems like the perfect example," Frank, of Falls Church, Virginia, told Camerota.

In August, Frank wrote a letter to the President asking if he could be allowed to put his landscaping skills to good use for the White House. In his letter -- read aloud at a briefing by press secretary Sarah Sanders -- he even offered to bring extra fuel and charged batteries.

"I would like to show the nation what young people like me are ready for," Frank wrote at the time.

Asked on Friday why he waived his fee, Frank replied, "My dad said, 'Just do it for free,' and I was like, 'Fine,' and that's where it's gonna go."

Beyond that, he wasn't able to tell Camerota what type of mowing implements the White House staff would supply him with.

But Sanders offered Twitter audience a look at the mower Frank was using, adding that he was "doing a great job."

The President later joined Frank as he trimmed the Rose Garden's grass.

Trump even congratulated Frank on a job well done by giving him a high five, CBS's Mark Knoller tweeted.
