The rings of Saturn could be much older than previously thought and may have formed around the same time as the planet, according to a modelling study. But not all astronomers are convinced, and a ...

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 two ...

Under this new model, Titan itself is the result of a collision between two earlier moons: a large body called “Proto-Titan,” ...

The simple answer is that Saturn’s rings do cast shadows on the planet’s surface! NASA’s Cassini spacecraft, which orbited Saturn from 2004 to 2017, took the dramatic image of the rings’ shadows on ...

New NASA research confirms that Saturn is losing its iconic rings at the maximum rate estimated from Voyager 1 & 2 observations made decades ago. The rings are being pulled into Saturn by gravity as a ...

New research shows Saturn’s rings formed about 100 million years ago after a massive collision between Titan and Proto ...

Saturn’s iconic rings will seem to “disappear” for a couple of days starting this weekend — at least from our vantage point on Earth. The rings won’t actually vanish, but for a short time, the angle ...
