This topic will contain images & discussion of same as they arrive during the extended download period. Similar threads will be opened in coming months as required as acquired data & discussion proceeds.
-------------------- A few will take this knowledge and use this power of a dream realized as a force for change, an impetus for further discovery to make less ancient dreams real.

We could always simulate the view at any rate, right? Once all the actually taken data is received and we have accurate hi-res maps of the appropriate areas, like in the Cassini thread when predicting which parts of a particular icy satellite getting a close flyby the next rev will be mapped.
