Solar system simulator shows an encouter under 500,000 km on June 6. Will there be a good view of the south pole on this pass?

Bandpass-filter enhancements of two pairs of 2/3 disk images, and 2 "best" haze penetration images from the closest coverage of the south polar region. Peanut-"lake" is certainly interesting. I've saturated the darker parts black in the enhancement, but I couldn't see much of anything there with softer contrast stretches.

Lot of variation in the cloud pattern between the two closest images. There's a lot of low contrast cloud above the main mass, closer to the termniator, varying between the frames, and some scraps of cloud near the peanut at 11 and 10:00 clock angle and another at 8:00 from the peanut.
