GENERAL KNOWLEDGE

Detailed explanation-1: -Saturn is a funny-looking planet. True, it’s not the only planet with rings. Jupiter, Uranus and Neptune have rings, too.

Detailed explanation-2: -Jupiter has only a couple of well defined rings with faint ‘gossamer’ rings surrounding them. Saturn on the other hand has dozens of distinct rings of varying thickness, density and composition.

Detailed explanation-3: -The inner parts of the ring systems are very different: Saturn’s is broad and opaque, while Uranus’ inner rings are very narrow. But two new rings of Uranus discovered in 2003, the inner “R2” and outer “R1” show similarities in color and relative position to Saturn’s G and E rings, respectively.
