The latest PDS release for Cassini is now online at http://pds-imaging.jpl.nasa.gov/data/cassi...assini_orbiter/

I've posted the RADAR swaths from T48 and T49 at http://pirlwww.lpl.arizona.edu/~perry/RADAR/ . These swaths include observations of the ISS playa, Tui Regio (yep, it does look a lot like Hotei Regio), Shikoku Facula, Belet, and the southern mid-latitudes.

One image I want to highlight is from one of the T48 swaths. It covers northern Shikoku Facula. You can see a river channel running from a playa in the center of northern Shikoku east out to the margin between the Shangri-la dune fields and Shikoku. Very cool stuff.

That's almost literally fantastic! How odd to contemplate this...

A few will take this knowledge and use this power of a dream realized as a force for change, an impetus for further discovery to make less ancient dreams real.
