Who can tell me where I can find on internet an up-to-date Timeline
for the Cassini-Huygens.
There are a view dates and the most information are out-of-date
or in German language.
Until now I have found these information:
(sorry the language is into Dutch)


The times given below are correct. Most of the flyby distances are
correct, although some of the Enceladus encounters listed as "1200km"
will actually be 1000 km, and the final one in 2008 is now planned to
be 100 km from the surface of Enceladus.

http://saturn.jpl.nasa.gov/ is Cassini's public-access website.
Unfortunately it seems to lack this sort of detailed information, but
I've written the webmaster and maybe we'll see some improvement.
