On May 21, Cassini caught Dione in front of Saturn. Here's my take on the view:

Almost the exact same side as the other flybys. There's little bit of new terrain on the 'southeast' of the big crater though (the southeast of the picture, not the moon!)

Yeah, it's a shame we weren't treated to a close-up view of the other side. Here's another RGB comp at slightly closer range:

That is an inspired comparison. Very instructive.

Great new views of Hyperion, even though it's the familiar side we're looking at.

Here's my RGB composite from the raw images:

Cassini did get fairly close views of other sides of the moon, such as this one in Sep 2011:

That 'other side' view is an even better match to the Vesta image just posted. A side-by side of those two might make headlines somewhere.

My personal take on the photos - just to make them look pretty, nothing accurate. Also, please note that they were processed on an iphone, so... yeah. Just ignore this.

I used an app called Afterlight for basic brightness/contrast/exposure/temperature control. Removed the image artifacts (i.e. bright spots) using Facetune. Did some further editing from my PC but didn't really change much. Thanks :-)
