I've been using the solar system simulator of late and I can say that this orbit will be far better for icy moon imaging that the last one.
Dione: C/A at about 564,000km. Excellent view of entire Saturn facing hemisphere with a much improved view of high northern latitudes. Rhea: C/A at about 470,000km. Tethys: C/A at 551,000km. Mimas: C/A at about 315,000km. -------------------- I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that I have set before thee life and death, the blessing and the curse; therefore choose life, that thou mayest live, thou and thy seed.
