The IAU approved new names for use on Tethys. These names include Scheria Montes (the central massif complex of Odysseus) and Telemus (an ancient impact basin near Ithaca Chasma).

Great. Necessary improvement - I hope the IAU will release some more namings for structures on the other saturnian satellites soon, especially Iapetus...
