Rev 165 will feature the ‘movie stars’ of the Cassini mission Titan, Enceladus and Saturn. Described in Ciclops ‘Looking Ahead’ here http://www.ciclops.org/view/7190/Rev165 Cassini’s encounter with Titan and Saturn will be filmed with the WAC as a spectacular movie on the 6th of May during the distant Titan encounter. A sneak preview is provided below courtesy of the Solar System Simulator http://space.jpl.nasa.gov/. Should be awesome!

I love it when a plan comes together.

Except the movie...sorry, I had those exposed for Saturn. Not sure why the summed frames were overexposed then. The NACs look good and the unsummed WACs look good. The WACs should provide some color frames for the enterprising folks here smile.gif
