Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -All of the outer planets in the solar system have rings, but only Saturn’s are easily visible from Earth. This is because Saturn’s rings have much more water ice, which is very reflective. Saturn also has very wide rings.

Detailed explanation-2: -SUMMARY: All four jovian planets are surrounded by a set of rings. These rings are made up of rock, ice, and dust particles that range in size from microscopically small to the size of a house.

Detailed explanation-3: -All of the outer planets have numerous moons. All of the outer planets also have planetary rings, which are rings of dust and other small particles encircling a planet in a thin plane. Only the rings of Saturn can be easily seen from Earth.

Detailed explanation-5: -The outer planets (sometimes called Jovian planets or gas giants) are huge planets swaddled in gas. They all have rings and all of plenty of moons each. Despite their size, only two of them are visible without telescopes: Jupiter and Saturn.

Detailed explanation-6: -Saturn, Uranus and Neptune all have rings made up of myriad particles of ice ranging in size from dust and sand to boulders. Each particle in a ring is an individual satellite of the planet in its own right.
