    Description: Although there is evidence that liquids have flowed on the surface at Titan's equator in the past, to date, liquids have only been confirmed on the surface at polar latitudes, and the vast expanses of dunes that dominate Titan's equatorial regions require a predominantly arid climate. We report the detection by Cassini's Imaging Science Subsystem of a large low-latitude cloud system early in Titan's northern spring and extensive surface changes (spanning more than 500,000 square kilometers) in the wake of this storm. The changes are most consistent with widespread methane rainfall reaching the surface, which suggests that the dry channels observed at Titan's low latitudes are carved by seasonal precipitation.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Turtle, E P -- Perry, J E -- Hayes, A G -- Lorenz, R D -- Barnes, J W -- McEwen, A S -- West, R A -- Del Genio, A D -- Barbara, J M -- Lunine, J I -- Schaller, E L -- Ray, T L -- Lopes, R M C -- Stofan, E R -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2011 Mar 18;331(6023):1414-7. doi: 10.1126/science.1201063.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory, Laurel, MD 20723, USA. elizabeth.turtle@jhuapl.edu〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21415347" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The Cassini Imaging Science Subsystem acquired high-resolution imaging data on the outer Saturnian moon, Phoebe, during Cassini's close flyby on 11 June 2004 and on Iapetus during a flyby on 31 December 2004. Phoebe has a heavily cratered and ancient surface, shows evidence of ice near the surface, has distinct layering of different materials, and has a mean density that is indicative of an ice-rock mixture. Iapetus's dark leading side (Cassini Regio) is ancient, heavily cratered terrain bisected by an equatorial ridge system that reaches 20 kilometers relief. Local albedo variations within and bordering Cassini Regio suggest mass wasting of ballistically deposited material, the origin of which remains unknown.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Porco, C C -- Baker, E -- Barbara, J -- Beurle, K -- Brahic, A -- Burns, J A -- Charnoz, S -- Cooper, N -- Dawson, D D -- Del Genio, A D -- Denk, T -- Dones, L -- Dyudina, U -- Evans, M W -- Giese, B -- Grazier, K -- Helfenstein, P -- Ingersoll, A P -- Jacobson, R A -- Johnson, T V -- McEwen, A -- Murray, C D -- Neukum, G -- Owen, W M -- Perry, J -- Roatsch, T -- Spitale, J -- Squyres, S -- Thomas, P C -- Tiscareno, M -- Turtle, E -- Vasavada, A R -- Veverka, J -- Wagner, R -- West, R -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2005 Feb 25;307(5713):1237-42.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Cassini Imaging Central Laboratory for Operations, Space Science Institute, 4750 Walnut Street, Suite 205, Boulder, CO 80301, USA. carolyn@ciclops.org〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15731440" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The Cassini Imaging Science Subsystem (ISS) began observing Saturn in early February 2004. From analysis of cloud motions through early October 2004, we report vertical wind shear in Saturn's equatorial jet and a maximum wind speed of approximately 375 meters per second, a value that differs from both Hubble Space Telescope and Voyager values. We also report a particularly active narrow southern mid-latitude region in which dark ovals are observed both to merge with each other and to arise from the eruptions of large, bright storms. Bright storm eruptions are correlated with Saturn's electrostatic discharges, which are thought to originate from lightning.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Porco, C C -- Baker, E -- Barbara, J -- Beurle, K -- Brahic, A -- Burns, J A -- Charnoz, S -- Cooper, N -- Dawson, D D -- Del Genio, A D -- Denk, T -- Dones, L -- Dyudina, U -- Evans, M W -- Giese, B -- Grazier, K -- Helfenstein, P -- Ingersoll, A P -- Jacobson, R A -- Johnson, T V -- McEwen, A -- Murray, C D -- Neukum, G -- Owen, W M -- Perry, J -- Roatsch, T -- Spitale, J -- Squyres, S -- Thomas, P -- Tiscareno, M -- Turtle, E -- Vasavada, A R -- Veverka, J -- Wagner, R -- West, R -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2005 Feb 25;307(5713):1243-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Cassini Imaging Central Laboratory for Operations, Space Science Institute, 4750 Walnut Street, Suite 205, Boulder, CO 80301, USA. carolyn@ciclops.org〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15731441" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Observations from the Cassini Visual and Infrared Mapping Spectrometer show an anomalously bright spot on Titan located at 80 degrees W and 20 degrees S. This area is bright in reflected light at all observed wavelengths, but is most noticeable at 5 microns. The spot is associated with a surface albedo feature identified in images taken by the Cassini Imaging Science Subsystem. We discuss various hypotheses about the source of the spot, reaching the conclusion that the spot is probably due to variation in surface composition, perhaps associated with recent geophysical phenomena.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Barnes, Jason W -- Brown, Robert H -- Turtle, Elizabeth P -- McEwen, Alfred S -- Lorenz, Ralph D -- Janssen, Michael -- Schaller, Emily L -- Brown, Michael E -- Buratti, Bonnie J -- Sotin, Christophe -- Griffith, Caitlin -- Clark, Roger -- Perry, Jason -- Fussner, Stephanie -- Barbara, John -- West, Richard -- Elachi, Charles -- Bouchez, Antonin H -- Roe, Henry G -- Baines, Kevin H -- Bellucci, Giancarlo -- Bibring, Jean-Pierre -- Capaccioni, Fabrizio -- Cerroni, Priscilla -- Combes, Michel -- Coradini, Angioletta -- Cruikshank, Dale P -- Drossart, Pierre -- Formisano, Vittorio -- Jaumann, Ralf -- Langevin, Yves -- Matson, Dennis L -- McCord, Thomas B -- Nicholson, Phillip D -- Sicardy, Bruno -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2005 Oct 7;310(5745):92-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Lunar and Planetary Laboratory, University of Arizona, Tucson, AZ 85721, USA. jbarnes@lpl.arizona.edu〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16210535" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Cassini has identified a geologically active province at the south pole of Saturn's moon Enceladus. In images acquired by the Imaging Science Subsystem (ISS), this region is circumscribed by a chain of folded ridges and troughs at approximately 55 degrees S latitude. The terrain southward of this boundary is distinguished by its albedo and color contrasts, elevated temperatures, extreme geologic youth, and narrow tectonic rifts that exhibit coarse-grained ice and coincide with the hottest temperatures measured in the region. Jets of fine icy particles that supply Saturn's E ring emanate from this province, carried aloft by water vapor probably venting from subsurface reservoirs of liquid water. The shape of Enceladus suggests a possible intense heating epoch in the past by capture into a 1:4 secondary spin/orbit resonance.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Porco, C C -- Helfenstein, P -- Thomas, P C -- Ingersoll, A P -- Wisdom, J -- West, R -- Neukum, G -- Denk, T -- Wagner, R -- Roatsch, T -- Kieffer, S -- Turtle, E -- McEwen, A -- Johnson, T V -- Rathbun, J -- Veverka, J -- Wilson, D -- Perry, J -- Spitale, J -- Brahic, A -- Burns, J A -- Delgenio, A D -- Dones, L -- Murray, C D -- Squyres, S -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Mar 10;311(5766):1393-401.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Cassini Imaging Central Laboratory for Operations, Space Science Institute, 4750 Walnut Street, Suite 205, Boulder, CO 80301, USA. carolyn@ciclops.org〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16527964" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
