[Moderator's note: This thread contains images from the Iapetus 2007-09-10 flyby and discussion of them. It was created by splitting this thread which contains pre-flyby discussion]
Another CL-UV3-GRN-IR1 set was posted today, though Iapetus seems to have been hiding from the green and IR filters...here's my best effort at making something from the CL and UV3 images. Lots of topography on the limb! --Emily
