Beautiful image of Dione
If Dione didn't have those white streaks it would look a lot like Iapetus |

QUOTE (volcanopele @ Dec 18 2004, 12:30 AM) I'm not sure I'm seeing these "circles" you are talking about... Apologies...It would have been more accurate if I had said "partial circles." I have highlighted them in this image. I'm having some trouble following references to the trailing and leading hemispheres and the sub- and anti-saturnian hemispheres, since I haven't been able to find any maps or images identifying them. Are these circles centered in either of those pairs of hemispheres? I'm trying to determine if the circles have a geometric relationship to the direction of tidal force. -------------------- ...Tom
