10 Years of Mapping the Icy Saturnian Satellites
The Cassini spacecraft started its tour through the Saturnian system in July 2004. The Imaging Science Subsystem onboard the orbiter consists of a high-resolution Narrow Angle Camera (NAC) with a focal length of 2000 mm and a Wide Angle Camera (WAC) with

Control of colocated geostationary satellites [PDF]
Control of the inter-satellite distances within a cluster of colocated satellites located in the same GEO window is examined with regards to the close approaches between pairs of satellites. Firstly, the orbital evolution and station keeping control of a

Measurements of Titan’s Stratospheric Winds during the 2009 Equinox with the eSMA
Saturn’s moon Titan possesses stratospheric zonal winds that places it among a sparse class of planetary bodies known to have superrotation in their atmospheres.

Resonant Stratification in Titan’s Global Ocean
Titan’s ice shell floats on top of a global ocean, as revealed by the large tidal Love number k _2 = 0.616 ± 0.067 registered by Cassini. The Cassini observation exceeds the predicted k _2 by one order of magnitude in the absence of an ocean, and is 3 σ ...

The Saturnian satellite Rhea as seen by Cassini VIMS [PDF]
The icy Saturnian satellite Rhea is often regarded as twin to its neighboring satellite Dione especially with respect toits geological history and its spectral surface properties. Cassini VIMS detected the satellites surfaces in the wavelength range from

Mapping of the icy saturnian satellites: Results from the first year inOrbit
Images of the icy Saturnian satellites Mimas, Enceladus, Tethys, Dione, Rhea, Iapetus, and Phoebe, derived by the Voyager and Cassini cameras are used to produce new local high-resolution image mosaics as well as global mosaics [http://ciclops.org, http:/

Comparison of the Jovian and Saturnian satellites
The understanding of outer planet satellites has improved considerably, when the Voyager spacecraft flew by Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune, followed by the advent of the Galileo spacecraft in the Jovian system (1995-2003) and the Cassini ...

Mapping of the Icy Saturnian satellites
The Saturnian system contains 47 satellites of different sizes. This paper deals with the mapping of the so-called medium-sized icy satellites Mimas, Enceladus, Tethys, Dione, Rhea, Iapetus, and Phoebe.
