Good close Titan flyby, with more radar coverage and ISS observations, mid-range Mimas imaging, and a followup observation of 'propellers' in the A ring amongst other goodies.

Notable that there seem to be astrometric observations from long-range of the smaller moons in the Saturnian system on every orbit - I wonder how constrained the orbital characteristics of these moons now are, and whether this campaign is planned for the rest of the mission?
