Cassini
Titan Flyby - Sept. 7, 2005
Informally dubbed "Looking for lakes in all the right places," the
Sept. 7 encounter with Titan focuses on the moon's high southern
latitudes, an area where Cassini's cameras have seen some possible
indications of lakes. The plan is to obtain the first RADAR scans
of this area, adding 50 percent to the coverage of the moon already
collected.
Some other important objectives include continuing the long-term
goal of temperature mapping, obtaining further detailed studies of
Titan's interaction with Saturn's magnetosphere, as well as
searching for lightning.
