Saturns rings
Saturns rings. Artwork of the rings of Saturn, as seen from Saturns upper cloud layers. The most visible rings extend outwards from Saturn for around 120, 000 kilometres. The rings, only about one kilometre thick, consist of millions of rock and ice chunks. The Cassini division in the rings is the largest gap seen here. The rings are thought to have formed from the disintegration of a moon that was too close to Saturn or was hit by a comet or asteroid. Saturn, the sixth planet from the Sun, is mostly hydrogen and helium. Its clouds are coloured by trace chemicals like methane

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning artwork captures the ethereal beauty of Saturn's rings as seen from the planet's upper cloud layers. Stretching outwards for approximately 120,000 kilometers, these magnificent rings are a mesmerizing sight to behold. Delicately composed of millions of rock and ice fragments, they form a thin band only about one kilometer thick. The focal point of this print is the Cassini division, which stands out as the largest gap within the intricate ring system. It serves as a testament to the immense forces at play in our vast universe. Scientists believe that these remarkable rings originated from either a moon disintegrating due to its proximity to Saturn or through an impact with a comet or asteroid. Saturn itself, positioned sixth in line from our Sun, is predominantly composed of hydrogen and helium gases. Its majestic clouds exhibit captivating hues owing to trace chemicals such as methane. This awe-inspiring illustration invites us into the realm of planetary wonders and cosmic mysteries. With its vertical composition showcasing every detail in exquisite clarity, it transports viewers on an interstellar journey through space and time. Captured by Science Photo Library, this image encapsulates both scientific discovery and artistic expression. As we gaze upon this celestial masterpiece, we are reminded of humanity's insatiable curiosity about our place in the cosmos – forever seeking answers among distant stars and enigmatic planets like Saturn.
