Want to know what areas Cassini will be observing in future passes? The solar system simulator now allows you to see through Titan's clouds

Checking the SSS again. Using the more precise Celestia grid and the Cassini image of Titan (N00149278)from 12/30/2009. Again the SSS shows the opposite Titan face. The center longitude is 80W for the SSS and 260W for the actual image. This more accurate measurement confirms the SSS image is off by 180 degrees longitude, showing the opposite hemisphere. Hopefully this can be easily remedied.
