This includes the Titan targeted encounter (pretty well- detailed observational timeline here), and a Voyager-class flyby of Janus, with ISS observations at around 160,000km. This won't be the closest remaining pass of Janus (I think the last few weeks of the prime mission have two closer passes) but it should reveal some previously unseen territory towards the south pole (or unseen at a reasonable distance anyhow)

I'll let Peter Thomas take care of that. Mama mia! I made that map of Janus in 1993. That was a long time ago... I should say I'm not doing any shape modelling these days, I don't even have the software running any more. Phil -------------------- ... because the Solar System ain't gonna map itself.
