[Moderator's note: This thread contains images from the Iapetus 2007-09-10 flyby and discussion of them. It was created by splitting this thread which contains pre-flyby discussion]
Another CL-UV3-GRN-IR1 set was posted today, though Iapetus seems to have been hiding from the green and IR filters...here's my best effort at making something from the CL and UV3 images. Lots of topography on the limb! --Emily -------------------- My website - My Patreon - @elakdawalla on Twitter - Please support unmannedspaceflight.com by donating here.

The latest set looks like ISS_049IA_M33HRS001_PRIME and appears to be perfectly targeted. Well done team!
EDIT: and here's my composite of that one. It's got stacked IR and Red for red, stacked green and clear for green, and just blue for blue (the UV3 one was a bit JPEGGy and cosmic-ray-hit to do much with) I was busily erasing cosmic ray hits from the short-wavelength channels when I noticed that there seemed to be a "hit" in the same place on two of the channels. Three light spots, actually, repeated from channel to channel, which means they weren't hits, they were features; they were the pole-facing southern rims of three craters north of the equator. Neat! There was also one longer-exposure clear image in this observation, and you can see the outline of the limb -- with a hint of some interesting topography -- and maybe one mid-sized crater in the north polar area by Saturnshine, but not much else. Also a few images from ISS_049IA_GLOBMAPG001_PRIME seem to be up, but not all of them. Bedtime for me; I'll have to wait until tomorrow to see what Santa has brought! --Emily -------------------- My website - My Patreon - @elakdawalla on Twitter - Please support unmannedspaceflight.com by donating here.
