A recently published study suggests that Saturn's rings formed after two icy moons collided a few hundred million years ago.

Researchers completed a complex simulation that supports the idea that the giant planet’s jewelry emerged hundreds of millions of years ago, not billions. By Robin George Andrews Try to imagine ...

A new series of simulations from NASA and Durham and Glasgow universities could help us better understand the origin of Saturn’s rings. The research in The Astrophysical Journal suggests that ...

(WTAJ) — Saturn is a visual marvel in our solar system, but how did it get those awe-inspiring rings? A new series of NASA supercomputer simulations might have the answer. In fact, they believe the ...

Since it was first seen through a telescope, Saturn's rings have mystified astronomers. But a team of researchers now believe they have figured out the origins of the mystical loops. A new series ...

For many observers, their first view of Saturn is one they will never forget. The sixth planet is responsible for recruiting many people to both amateur and professional astronomy with its ...

Aug. 29, 2023 — Astronomers have uncovered a link between Neptune's shifting cloud abundance and the 11-year solar cycle, in which the waxing and waning of the Sun's entangled magnetic fields ...

Try to imagine Saturn without its signature rings. Now picture two large icy moons shifting closer together little by little until — boom. Chaos. What was solid is now fluid. Diamantine shards ...
