New Ring Discovered Around Saturn

Posted by CowboyNeal on

HunahpuMonkey writes "BBC News is reporting that 'scientists using the Cassini probe have found a new ring and one, possibly two, new objects orbiting Saturn.' The article also notes that the discoveries are in the planet's contorted F-ring region. The ring of new material seems to be associated with Saturn's moon Atlas."

    Anyone who watched the first episode of Father of the Pride already knew that Siegfried and Roy were adding a new ring.
