Scientists were able to unravel the mystery of Saturn

Ученым удалось разгадать главную тайну СатурнаScientists found out why the rings of the planet do not fly into space.

Mission, Cassini scientists found that Saturn’s rings continue to exist and do not fly into space due to the influence of the seven satellites of the planet.

Previously, scientists found that the particles of Saturn’s rings would fall to the planet or to “defect” in the space of just a few million years after the appearance. However, rings of the planet continue to exist and now, what has forced researchers to look for possible options of why this is happening.

Now scientists have found that this is due to the moons of Saturn, which rotate within the rings of a planet or next to them: pan, Atlas, Prometheus, Pandora, Janus, and Mimas pimeta.

Scientific images and data from Cassini, which were obtained during flights through the rings of Saturn, show that these satellites stabilize the two outer rings of the planet, and whose share accounts for the largest mass of gas and dust. The moons of Saturn, as the researchers found, “brake” the motion of dust particles in these rings and not allow them to penetrate their orbit, which protects the rings from disintegration and allows them to keep the clear structure they have today.

Space station, Cassini-Huygens, worth more than three billion dollars, was launched in 1997 to study Saturn and its moon Titan.

Cassini is named after the Italian scientist Jean Domenico Cassini, who proved that the ring of Saturn consists of two parts separated by a dark band (Cassini’s division), also suggesting that the rings of Saturn are composed of parts of various sizes.

Cassini-Huygens is one of the most ambitious space missions ever launched into space. She was filled with a huge number of instruments and cameras for accurate measurement and high-quality images in different atmospheric conditions and the color spectrum.

One of the achievements of NASA scientists examining pictures from Cassini, the discovery of liquid water in the depths of Titan. Also previously, NASA has published an unprecedented clear photos of Saturn’s rings.
