Scientific paper

We present results from analysis of observations of Saturn's magnetospheric emissions obtained by both the EUV and FUV channels of the Cassini Ultraviolet Imaging Spectrograph (UVIS) during Cassini's approach to Saturn (December 24, 2003 through May 21, 2004). These data are publicly available through the NASA Planetary Data System. Emissions from atomic hydrogen and oxygen are detected. We present images showing the spatial distribution of magnetospheric emissions, which generally peak in brightness near the orbit of Enceladus. Significant temporal variations of these emissions were observed during the approach period.
