Much appreciated Gordan. It's great to see the old walnut moon again, and from a new angle.

Has any new terrain been revealed in this view? Obviously it isn't the best resolution, but just out of curiosity.

I downloaded all the flyby images this morning with the idea of assembling an animation if I find the time, but I think I'll just enjoy what has been done already.

Great as per usual, Gordan.

I've updated my Iapetus 'bouncy' flyby movie, which is derived from a sequence of 203 frames; tweened to 406:

as for Iapetus, my only wish would be to have high-res image - in daylight - of the snowman craters..
