From the Mission Description:
"HiSAR in south midlatitudes will look at a possible impact structure feature seen in ISS data."

Whoa! I didn't expect this so quick!

Images of the T48 approach to Titan are already up (600,000 km and closing!)! Here's a shot of Hotei Arcus region. W Aztlan is the dark streak on the left side of the image.

Some flyby images are down!

Here's a picture of the W section of Hotei Arcus. (It is upside down - S is at top).
