Amazing discovery

Cassini, a spacecraft sent to Saturn in collaboration with the United States and Europe, hopes to provide valuable information about the gas-filled planet before landing on Saturn.
In the last days, when Cassini repeatedly passed through dense clouds around Saturn, he measured the planet's gravity in a way that had never been seen before.
These days Cassini weighed Saturn's rings and we found that these rings are 20 times smaller than previously thought. The most important thing for scientists was the volume of Saturn's rings, because when the correct volume is known, we can estimate the exact age of these rings.
Professor Luciano says that these spheres may be close to 100 million years, but not more than 100 million years old.
If we compare the ages of the solar system, which is more than four and a half billion years, we can say that the orbit of Saturn is a matter of tomorrow.
Recent research has not shed light on the changes that are taking place in space around Saturn, but according to Professor Luciano, the formation of these spheres could be the result of a major defect in space.
