Data from Cassini's November 2005 Observations of Iapetus
During revs 17
and 18, Cassini swept out a long loop that paced Iapetus in
its orbit around Saturn. Cassini observed Iapetus daily from November 1
through November 18, capturing multispectral sets of images as
well as VIMS, CIRS, and UVIS observations to build up global maps of
Iapetus' topography, color, and surface properties with respect to solar
illumination angle.
Cassini's closest approach to Iapetus was on November 12, 2005 at 14:36 UTC
from a distance of 416,000 kilometers. This page covers all of the data
from this flyby that has been released to the public so far. As new data
is released, it will be added to this page. It was last updated on November
21, 2005.

Science Institute.
