Abstract
- Stains on Saturn's rings, shown in this picture from NASA's Cassini spacecraft, suggest the halos are no older than 400 million years. Out of millions of dust particles floating among the rings, Kempf and colleagues identified about 160 micrometeoroids that could have hailed from beyond the Saturn system.
