Saturn and it's planets were captured by the Sun. Prior to that, most likely, Jupiter was the only planet/sun in this system Saturn used to be our "central sun" it's written all over the planet by the ancients.. We are about to go FULL CIRCLE..that's what in part, 2012 is all about. (ok, well, full half-circle for some..) The "golden age" will begin again..as we head back to our home system of Orion. eesh...nobody looks beyond their nose anymore.. -s You turkies..it’s a METAPHOR!

The “golden age” will begin

It would be like flying through a minefield. Imagine how hard it would be to have spacecraft in orbit with a ring system!

Every one of the "events" over the past billion years or so have had some influence on life as we know it. Rings are the remains of satellites (moons) breaking up. Such an event would subject the earth to a huge bombardment of meteors and meteorites. It would be that issue that would be of most concern to life on earth. Good point though. :) #12, Curser,

I sent the link to my astronomy club mail list. The only downside is the rings would reflect so much light at night that viewing Deep Sky Objects with a backyard telescope would be pretty much out of the question. Thanks Uncle Dave.

Anything under the shadow areas, about 3-6 months per year is going to DIE, or be real weird. Sats would have some interesting problems, MOSTLY those going N/S directions.. If they floated IN the rings, we could just let the RINGS hold the equipment. i POSTED THIS IN CAGEMATCH A FEW DAYS BACK..
