Nice Dione mosaic!

Some of the global mosaic frames are coming down.

Well, this could be a boundary between bright and dark terrain on Ganymede (crater size/shapes notwithstanding)... except it's on Enceladus!

In a way, they're like cratons... ice cratons. Pretty neat.

Psychedelic in color! It's sort of a cheat, IR-CL-UV. Quite an interesting pattern of color to the crater rims at upper left of the image.

Comparing to this Celestia view, it looks as if my map has a sliver in the upper right that could be filled in with the new imagery.

Very useful little sliver. Contains one of my new favorite surface features on Enceladus.

Sounds good. I'm looking a bit more at the lay of the land for these new images. Here's a Celestia view (1st) for the global raw image (2nd) at around 100000km range as Cassini was pulling away. At this range the new sliver is close to the northeast limb.

At closer ranges (here at 34000km) the new sliver was in better view.

At a similar distance, here's how I would match the Celestia frame to a raw image (N165749):

Emily's psychedelic frame matches up like this below in Celestia:
