Breathtaking images of Saturn rings shared by NASA

Saturn is not the only planet to have rings, but none are as spectacular or as complex as Saturn's

The particles that make up Saturn’s rings range in size from smaller than a grain of sand to as large as mountains

Few sights in the solar system are more strikingly beautiful than softly hued Saturn embraced by the shadows of its stately rings

Saturn's rings are thought to be pieces of comets, asteroids, or shattered moons

The rings would look mostly white if you looked at them from the cloud tops of Saturn

Saturn takes about 30 Earth-years to orbit the Sun
