The T22 mission description is now online (http://saturn.jpl.nasa.gov/multimedia/products/pdfs/20061228_titan_mission_description.pdf).

I miss those ISS coverage maps they use to have. The ones that accompanied the mission description on the flyby page and color coded by picture resolution.

Not to mention (as others here have) the lack of any information about any other targets.

We have a fairly decent mosaic designed for the region around the VIMS bright stripes, but I'm not sure how effective it will be as a surface mapping observations. Lots of good WAC photometry though.

Since T22 concentrates on Radio Science, are the Deep Space Net's antennas the only ones that
will track Cassini during the flyby? During the Huygens descent many Radio Telescopes tracked
Huygens.

A false color view of Titan created using the 3 polarized UV3 filters and greatly enhanced:



Looks like the polarization behavior changes a bit in the north polar detached haze cap.

I guess it's about 70 S but I'm not sure at all. Any better guesses?

You're right, it's above Mezzoramia. There's still could be some liquid there.
