Saturn’s rings are slowly raining down into the planet
Saturn’s rings look permanent, but the planet is quietly pulling them apart. Measurements gathered by spacecraft and ground-based observatories show that a steady drizzle of icy particles is falling ...
Nasa-backed concepts aim to sample Saturn's rings and send tiny probes through them. The proposals could answer long-standing questions about the rings' origin, age and structure.
A decagon – a geometric polygon with 10 sides and 10 angles – has been found on Saturn, and nobody is quite sure how it got ...

Astronomers Spot an Uncannily Geometric, 10-Sided Structure in Saturn's Atmosphere
Polar projection of Saturn's southern hemisphere from Hubble data, revealing the decagon. (NASA, ESA, A. Sánchez-Lavega (Basque Country University, EHU)) Saturn, apparently, has been hiding its ...
Controlling light within microscopic spaces is crucial for next-generation optical devices such as photonic integrated circuits and localized sensors. Microspheres formed of luminescent π-conjugated ...
