Evidence suggests Earth had a ring system 466 million years ago, causing a surge in meteorite impacts and possibly influencing the planet's climate.

Earth and Saturn might be a lot more similar than previously thought. In a new study, a team of researchers suggests that 466 million years ago, a ring system made up of asteroid remnants may have surrounded our planet,

And now, a new study published in the scientific journal Earth and Planetary Science Letters seems to show that Earth itself once had a similar ring. The new study asserts that Earth's ring formed around 466 million years ago and stuck around for around 40 million years before dissipating.

I f astronomers had been walking the Earth 466 million years ago, they may have had something special to see. The moon and the planets and the stars and the sun would have looked

A ring could explain a mysterious arrangement of impact craters near the equator and might even have caused an ice age, according to a new study

Earth might have had a ring system in the past, similar to those of Saturn. Scientists drew these conclusions based on the analysis of the locations of craters on our planet. Scientists, based on the analysis of asteroid craters,

Scientists have concluded that the Earth may have had a ring system similar to Saturn's based on the analysis of the location of craters on our planet. Scientists claim that over 450 million years ago,

Andy Tomkins and his team at Monash University propose that Earth once had rings lasting ten million years, affecting its climate. Their analysis of asteroid craters from 466 million years ago suggests a debris ring formed from an asteroid's fragmentation,
