It is not a common feature of planets in the solar system to have rings. Saturn is one of the two planets that have them. The rings of Saturn are very prominent. In fact, some people are familiar with Saturn because of its rings. The rings are said to have come from one of the moons of Saturn that became too close to the planet.

In the process, the moon broke down and it formed a ring around the planet. The ring that you can see is composed of the remnants of one of its large moons. The particles of the ring can be different in terms of sizes. Some are as big as houses while others are like granules of sugar.
