The planet Saturn is a planet that has rings, and is the most beautiful planet in the solar system.
The planet Saturn is the sixth planet from the sun, namely the center of the solar system, and is one of the second largest planets in the solar system.
The planet Saturn is the most beautiful planet because it has rings, according to NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration), Saturn’s rings consist of ice grains and fragments or fragments of asteroid comets or materials that are torn apart due to the strong gravitational force of this planet.
Well, the diameter of Saturn’s rings reaches 282 million kilometers and the distance between the planet and its rings is around 607 million kilometers.
This interesting fact about Saturn’s rings was discovered in 1610 by Galileo Galilei when observations were made with a telescope.

Researchers estimate that Saturn’s rings will completely disappear in 300 million years, this is because Saturn rains rings weighing 10 thousand kilograms per second.
This amount is said to be able to fill a swimming pool for the Olympics in half an hour and 30 minutes. This rain is actually fragments of the remaining rings of Saturn, which are made of ice and rock fragments which continue to collide with ultra violet radiation from the sun and many small meteoroids in outer space. .
Saturn’s ring rain has occurred since the 1980s when the Foyagunasa mission realized there was a dark and mysterious band which turned out to be a rain of rings captured by the battlefield.
