The SAR swath, which will provide RADAR imaging at up to 300 m/pixel resolution, will cover Titan’s South Pole and the terrain along 30 degrees and 210 degrees west longitude, as far north as 40 degrees south latitude. This swath will cover a few of the possible lakes observed by ISS in June 2005, including a large, W-shaped dark feature near 86 degrees south, 35 degrees west.


Someone have a polar map the path can be projected on?

Here ye go. Please note that the path crosses several suspected lakes in the south polar region, including a W-Shaped lake and a few other very dark features in the region.

"W-shaped Dark Feature" you mean..... RADAR will tell you if it is a lake or a dunefield....

btw - downlink isnt until this weekend and vacation may mean SAR doesnt get processed for
a while (to say nothing of the various PAO approvals required for web releases etc), so don't
assume there is some conspiracy afoot (or that Cassini blew up) just because images arent
out until the new year....
