Heh... I remember hearing people talk about this when I was working for INMS. The 5-sigma error bars for this pass were something like 100m, maybe less-- in 2003!!! People were joking that we should have mounted INMS to the end of the MAG boom, and taken Cassini low enough to scrape the surface of Enceladus. You know, to get a good mass sample....
Zoom!
I'd love to see the results of the particle and fields instruments from this, even if it wasn't quite as close as we'd have liked...
