Unmanned Spaceflight.com _ Cassini's ongoing mission and raw images _ T4 Or T5
Posted by: tedstryk Mar 26 2005, 07:17 PM
Two questions....first, is this upcoming orbit T4 or T5? It is the fourth Titan flyby, Tc nonwithstanding, but if we are going by a Galileo style numbering system, T5 follow E4.
Any decent icy flybys this time around?

The next flyby is T4, the flyby in mid-April is T5. Yes, I know it would make sense to have the flybys labeled Galileo-style, but who said that it had to make sense.
There is a decent Enceladus encounter but no images this time around AFAIK. We get some nice Rhea pics.

It looks like the rest of the orbits will be in order.
