Wanna see a really good demonstration of new physics? Sometime, near the end of Cassini's mission, we should put it on a spiraling free-orbit into one of Saturn's moons, preferably the largest moon without a complicating atmosphere, then watch what happens. We would FINALLY have an extra-Earth orbit demonstration of unexpected gravity forces that could not be written of as bugs on the windscreen, high drag, low drag, updrafts, down drafts, solar wind, gas leaks, late parachute deployment, paint chips...
Banana skins? ...
