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?

A nice closeup of the rings taken on March 8th with Narrow Angle camera and red, green, and blue filters (with some colour adjustment from me to better approximate true colours):
As we're getting closer to the rings and start seeing large-scale clumps of material, I wonder how hard it will be to clean those images of artifacts while trying to preserve the graininess of the actual rings. -------------------- Curiosity rover panoramas: http://www.facebook.com/CuriosityRoverPanoramas
