I don't know whetther they will have the stretch working by then. If they are released and the stretch is bad, I'll redo them for you guys. These provide a great view of a giant crater in Cassini Regio (I'm wondering if this is a different crater. It looks about 350 km across. -------------------- &@^^!% Jim!

One hemisphere of the moon is very dark, while the other is very bright. Whether the moon is being coated by foreign material or being resurfaced by material from within is not yet known.
