From Looking Ahead: Rev153: Sep 3 - Sep 22 '11

A lot going on this revolution:

Sixty-one ISS observations are planned for Rev153, the majority designed to monitor cloud systems in Saturn's atmosphere. The spacecraft also will encounter a number of Saturn's moons, including Titan, Pallene, Tethys, Enceladus, and Hyperion, for which ISS will acquiring imaging.

ISS will image the L5 Lagrange point (60 degrees behind satellite) regions of the moons Iapetus, Rhea and Dione to see if they have Trojan’s like Dione/Polydeuces and Tethys/Calypso.
