Images and preliminary results from last month's Saturnian vernal equinox have been posted on the imaging team website. The images are located at http://ciclops.org/view_event/116/A_Rare_Celestial_Spectacle and the press release is located at http://ciclops.org/view.php?id=5844
The images posted include a large mosaic of Saturn taken during equinox, radial scans of the rings, new information on ring corrugations, evidence for impacts into the rings by meter-sized objects, and the shadows of large ring particles and waves along the margin of the Keeler Gap. Enjoy! -------------------- &@^^!% Jim! I'm a geologist, not a physicist!
