Scientific paper

Recent discoveries support the contention that materials from the Solar System's nascent molecular cloud and materials lightly processed in the solar nebula are preserved in some objects now accessible to closer study. Saturn's satellite Hyperion may be a special case of a large, unmelted planetesimal that is primarily made of H2O, and probably CO2 ice, laced with hydrocarbon-bearing dust and small amounts of other volatile molecules. We discuss the analysis of Cassini VIMS observations of Hyperion in this context.
