Saturn’s rings are quite temporary on the time scale that planets exist at. They might only have been formed in a collision between moons 100 million years ago, and will most likely disappear in some 100 million years. This is a very brief period compared to the age of the planet.
So rings are likely quite an unstable formation either way.
You’ll get lots of full solar eclipses on Pluto but that’s a boring one too. No birds to hear freaking out (government drones beeping about low power from solar panels). The Sun looks tiny, too. ★☆☆☆☆
at least stick to the solar system
Yeah, a planet that’s just like Earth but with a ring system would be dope af
Though maybe it’s impossible to have rings and a cool bigass moon because gravity or something? Physicists, help a homie out.
You are not alone to consider that
Not a scientist but I imagine 1 moon or more would more or less attract all the matter that would otherwise become a ring?
Saturn has 146 moons and the largest, Titan, is 50% larger than ours, but also farther away from the planet.
I legit forgot Saturn existed there, I shouldn’t try to brain before lunch.
