[SJAA-announce] Fw: [AANC Contacts] What's Up at JPL?

[Bob & Brenda Havner]

Lots of Solar System happenings here at JPL this week, and it's only 
Wednesday!

I hope you've had a chance to look at the incredible images from
Cassini over the past 2 days! The Iapetus images are simply amazing!
Find the series of Iapetus links, along with a Cassini Status report
on the Cassini website now! http://saturn.jpl.nasa.gov/home/index.cfm

Dawn is nearing launch, the rover Opportunity has dipped all 6 of its
wheels into Victoria Crater, and Cassini is returning simply amazing
images, now in its 4th year of the mission. You can see all three of
these features on the JPL website today: http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/

What else is up? As Voyager celebrates its 30th year anniversary, all
four of the outer planets - Saturn, Jupiter, Uranus and Neptune - are
all visible this month and all four are featured in "What's Up for
September".

animations from the JPL Education Page:
