I was intrigued by the quick look Cassini got at the conical craters of Saturn's Phoebe. Now it looks like we'll get a much better look at the same sort of crater on Vesta. The images below are very roughly to the same scale. Although Vesta is a little more than twice the diameter of phoebe, the craters in question seem to be about the same size on both bodies.
