The Other Moons, So what about Huperion? Options

[volcanopele]

As of Orbit C, we now have reasonable resolution images of most of the major Saturnian moons Titan (T0, Ta, and Tb), Tethys (orbit A), Rhea (orbit C), Dione (orbit , Mimas (orbit C), Enceladus (orbit C), Iapetus (B/C), and Phoebe (pres-SOI). This leaves only Hyperion as the sole major satellite without a decent closeup. Based on what I could find, this situation will not change until orbit 9, on June 9, 10, and 11, when there will be some observations sets of that satellite, with some sets following that on orbit 13 and 15.

I'm also looking forward to Epimetheus and Janus, along with Telesto, Calypso & Helene.


I'm wondering if these little moons are like Phoebe or something diffrent.

Looks like Epimetheus will get its close-up on orbit 53, in December 2007.

The primary mission also allows some excellent opportunities for untargeted but close views of Janus and Telesto, but Calypso and Helene will have to settle for more distant views.
