Leilanidude, I know you're joking, but NASA is actually crashing the probe into Saturn for environmental reasons! They don't want it drifting around in Saturn's system where it could potentially collide with one of its moons and contaminate the surface. Although the possibility is remote, both Titan and Enceladus could have some form of life on them (or more likely, in them). Crashing it into Saturn means it will completely vaporize.
