Two questions....first, is this upcoming orbit T4 or T5? It is the fourth Titan flyby, Tc nonwithstanding, but if we are going by a Galileo style numbering system, T5 follow E4.
Any decent icy flybys this time around? -------------------- |

The next flyby is T4, the flyby in mid-April is T5. Yes, I know it would make sense to have the flybys labeled Galileo-style, but who said that it had to make sense.
There is a decent Enceladus encounter but no images this time around AFAIK. We get some nice Rhea pics. -------------------- &@^^!% Jim! I'm a geologist, not a physicist!
