Apr 23, 2014 at 11:15 comment added LocalFluff Cassini will crash into Saturn, of course. I was thinking about Galileo which has crashed into Jupiter.
Apr 23, 2014 at 11:09 comment added LocalFluff LADEE is actually an exception! It was crashed on the far side of the Moon, so the crash was not observed and had no scientific purpose. Phantastically, I think, is the claim that it was done in order to make sure it wouldn't crash into a historic Apollo site, as if there would be any probabilty for that. Cassini will end its mission by crashing into Jupiter in order to not risk contaminating any of the icy moons. That too lacks scientific purpose. LCross and Grail are other Lunar crashed spacecrafts since 2009.
