Re: Saturn's rings have own atmosphere (Forwarded)



Yeay!

How thick is this atmosphere? Is it so thin it's irrelevant to the
structure of the rings, or is it largely responsible for averaging the
energy of the ring pieces so they stay in a nice thin plane and show
all those coordinated ripples? How thick is it (in kilometers above
the plane)?

I'm surprised it's oxygen.
