QUOTE In order to serve a larger audience, we are temporarily disabling the raw image search function to allow a greater number of people to access press releases and materials related to the Huygens probe descent. This service will return next week. WHAT! Great No raw images for week. |

Does next week mean Sunday or a week from today?

Hopefully next week means next Monday (January 17). Actually I'm not surprised of this, yesterday it was almost impossible to access the Cassini website for several hours.
Meanwhile, here are some appetizers. First Mimas as it should appear near closest approach. The only problem is that I don't know when it will be imaged. |

And here's Enceladus. As before, I do not know when it will be imaged, hardly near closest approach though since it occurs at a very high phase angle. The view near midnight looks nice though.
Note that the field of view in these renderings is 0.175 so Enceladus' relative size is two times what it will be in the actual images. |

Have you done a rendering of Rhea for this orbit?

And finally, here's Rhea. These look a bit ugly since I used a preliminary map I did that contains data from a low-res Cassini image but I didn't remove the seams.
The bright rayed crater discussed earlier in this thread isn't visible until several hours after closest approach (i.e. not until the following midnight) so I assume Rhea will be imaged at at least two different times. The field of view is 0.7 degrees, i.e. two times the FOV of Cassini's narrow angle camera. Next project: An animation of the February Enceladus flyby. |

Went threw my bookmarks and I made a point of bookmarking latest 500 images just in case. (Last Week )
Keep an eye out for some pics since the Hyper Link was disabled on the Cassinni Page. http://saturn1.jpl.nasa.gov/multimedia/ima...?browseLatest=1 |

Cool! Thanks. I thought they had really taken the raws down.

ISS imaging of Mimas, Rhea, and Enceladus is now on the ground.
