Obviously you mean't the Cassini spacecraft which took those pictures. Its in orbit around Saturn ATM, but if you want to see a different perspective of Saturn from Voyager, check this out!! Not sure how long ago it was taken, but Saturn is in the lower left corner of the picture. Can't even see its rings.



One of the last pics of earth from Voyager, and like the caption says, that's all of us,lol It takes something like over 14 hours to get a signal from Voyager right now, I'd say that Voyager is definitely going where no man made spacecraft has gone before!
