T-118 is coming up on April 4th and will feature data acquisition from the same atmospheric region by Cassini’s UVIS (ultraviolet imaging spectrograph) and INMS (ion and neutral mass spectrometer). http://saturn.jpl.nasa.gov/mission/flybys/titan20160404/
I would post a Ciclops summary of Rev but for some reason I am unable to link to the Ciclops ‘Looking Ahead’ site. (anybody else having this issue?) In the meantime, there have been nice images of Titan from March 29th with Titan’s N polar lakes visible (below). I wonder about the N polar band or hood’s persistence and whether it is influenced by Kraken and the other seas at this latitude. |

Yes, it seems just so unnecessary; what were the problems with the old site?
With those giant buttons and tiny handful of images at once it seems designed more for touchscreens and smartphone navigation and since I own neither of those gadgets (despite my millennial status!) it was wasted effort. It does look 'slick' on the main page so props for that. The giant countdown timer to the next flyby is pretty nice, visually. |
