I am at the edge of my seat for this orbit!
09/23/2005 15 Distant Flyby (altitude = 91,000 km; 57,000 mi) of moon Calypso 09/23/2005 15 Distant Flyby (altitude = 70,000 km; 43,000 mi) of moon Mimas 09/23/2005 15 Distant Flyby (altitude = 98,000 km; 61,000 mi) of moon Prometheus 09/24/2005 15 Close Flyby (altitude = 1,500 km; 900 mi) of moon Tethys 09/26/2005 15 Close Flyby (altitude = 500 km; 300 mi) of moon Hyperion I don't know of the NTs are going to be used, although unless it would have too severe an impact on Tethys, I hope they use the Mimas flyby - it is almost as good as the flyby earlier in the summer! Lets hope for no problems! I only wish I wasn't going out of town this weekend... -------------------- |

I don't expect the pics out until Monday. The weekends always end up in Red X's
