With its second to last swing by Titan the curtain has now opened on Cassini's final act. What wonders will we see in the rings?

Some very nice images of Epimetheus recently. Here are two showing lots of grooves. I have brightened the area illuminated by Saturn to hint at what the raw data will show us when it arrives in PDS. one image is almost entirely lit by Saturn rather than the Sun.
