Rev 212 is now in progress and Titan posed for the ISS imaging system on Feb 8th. The Looking Ahead article http://www.ciclops.org/view/7991/Rev212?js=1 contains the approximate view seen in images N00235169 to N00235179. The CL1 CB3 image shows Kraken (K) with its bright ‘ring’ surrounding it. Also prominent is Tollan Terra (T) and (not so prominent in my rendering), Yalaing Terra (Y).

I found a nice bright Titan in the last raw!
(It's not true color is obtained using 3 uv filters)

Nice one Eli. There are now many more images (check the ‘last 500 images’ link) that have come down. Here’s one featuring Sinlap as taken by the WAC on 2/12/2015. The corresponding SAR image from T3 is overlain.

thanks titanicrivers.
It's all weekend that I'm losing through Cassini's images! smile.gif
About Sinlap, If I'm not mistaken it should be so:

Indeed. No question who has the better Sinlap Eli smile.gif
However we have the same SAR overlay on the WAC image and in the same orientation!
This might be a good time to highlight the tremendous depiction and discussion of Sinlap by Juramike and others found here http://www.unmannedspaceflight.com/index.p...4177&st=345

ops sorry! smile.gif when I opened your image yesterday I didn't see the animation (maybe it's due to my poor internet connection .... I live in the mountains, it happens!)

Here's my late-night attempt at stacking some PDS frames to produce one of the best ISS views of Sinlap to date:

Very nice!

Very nice indeed! Overlay with T3 SAR below. A nice paper discussing Sinlap here: http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/2007JE002965/full

That's a great comparison of datasets, Mr. T. Thanks for the link to the paper.
