Six images of Saturn and its rings over the years. One image per year from 2020 where the rings are clearly visible. In 2025 Saturn crossed Equinox which means that the rings were edge on and can hardly be seen.

The rings of Saturn are incredibly thin; while they extend hundreds of thousands of kilometers in diameter, their thickness is only about 10 meters in many places. #SaturnRings #Thickness #PlanetaryRings

I've just published another post on #AnotherPlanet, this time explaining why I find #planetaryrings so interesting to think about and with – and start to sketch how attending closely to them might extend ideas of #newmaterialism and 'nonorganic life'.

False-color infrared image of Saturn from the Cassini spacecraft. The rings are highlighted in blue, while Saturn's atmosphere displays red thermal emissions and green sunlit reflections, revealing atmospheric bands, storms, and a hexagonal cloud system at the North Pole. The image showcases the beauty and complexity of Saturn's atmosphere and rings.

JWST finds Chariklo&#8217;s inner ring growing denser while its outer ring fades
The James Webb Space Telescope has caught both rings around Chariklo — the only known ring-bearing centaur — evolving in opposite directions at the same time. The finding, published in Science Advance

The study of planetary rings reveals information about the age and evolution of planetary systems. Young ring systems are typically brighter and more extensive than older, more diffuse ring systems. #PlanetaryRings #RingEvolution #PlanetarySystems

The study of planetary rings helps scientists understand processes like accretion and the dynamics of small particles in a gravitational field. #PlanetaryRings #Accretion #OrbitalDynamics

The Roche Limit describes the distance within which a celestial body, held together only by its own gravity, will disintegrate due to the tidal forces of a larger body. This explains why planets don't have rings closer than the Roche limit. #RocheLimit #TidalForces #PlanetaryRings

Comets can influence the dynamics of planetary rings. Gravitational interactions between a passing comet and a planet's ring system can cause disturbances and even create waves or structures within the rings themselves. #PlanetaryRings #GravitationalInteraction #RingDynamics

Some planets have rings made of dust, ice, and rock, but not all ring systems are created equal. Saturn's rings are exceptionally bright and extensive, while other planets, such as Uranus and Jupiter, have fainter and less prominent ring systems. #PlanetaryRings #SaturnRings #UranusRings
