Cassini's second hyperclose pass of Dione is just days away. Ive posted some new views and thoughts about Dione
on FB and YT (links below) of some of the features that might be visible in the images, which will show mostly the leading
hemisphere. Jeff Moore and I have been working on a volcanic hypothesis for the smooth plains and the odd features found within
it, which we hope to submit for publication very soon.
