Cool eh? smile.gif

I'm afraid my IcySats knowledge is terrible - and I just go from what the raw images website tells me..and it says Tethys....if anyone can fill me in on the 'other' one smile.gif

Hands up if you thought the darker moon was going to go infront of the brighter moon !

Is the upcoming flyby of Tethys quite a bit closer than originally planned? According to the countdown applet on the Cassini website http://saturn.jpl.nasa.gov/home/index.cfm in 4 days or so there will be a Tethys flyby at 1,500 km. However, the itinerary at http://saturn.jpl.nasa.gov/operations/satu...ur-dates-05.cfm has the flyby distance at 29,773 km. What happened? Or am I reading it wrong?
