I have noticed that the January 1, 2007 Cassini PDS release is already available, see http://pds-imaging.jpl.nasa.gov/data/cassi...assini_orbiter/
I haven't downloaded all of the imaging data and I'm just beginning to digest what I already have but there are some beautiful images of Enceladus' plumes and satellite mutual events, images of the G and D rings and interesting images of Saturn's nightside and fairly good Iapetus images. Radar and VIMS is also available. All in all a nice 'Christmas gift' ![]() |

Another tidbit from the release: an approx. natural color ring scan of the left ansa, consisting of 5 NAC RGB segments. This was taken a couple of days (Sep 7 IIRC) before the Iapetus encounter and shows a similar vantage point. There's also the right ansa data at the PDS, but it doesn't show as much interesting stuff (Mimas, Pan and Prometheus).

Mimas is posed perfectly, and Pan and Prometheus... just amazing. |
