Saturn’s rings are around 150 mio. years old.
Now THAT is a shower thought.
What blows my mind even more is that, when dinosaurs existed*, the solar system was on the other side of our galaxy.
(*) Dinos were around for a really long time, so it was largely during the Cretaceous when the solar system was on the opposite side.
more of a TIL than a shower thought
doesn’t make me any less cool
Interesting thought, but the rings may be older than that, and they may be reoccurring. That’s just an estimate based on a range calculated in a recent study.

There’s a lot more learning to do.
Dios mío, man.
So the dinosaurs all died of disappointment?
Nah, most of them moved to Saturn after they got married.
