NPRNasa discovers `supersized` Saturn ring Thin array of ice and dust particles lies at far reaches of Saturnian system, starting about 6m kilometres from the planetA never-before-seen 'supersized' ring around the planet Saturn has been discovered.The thin array of ice and dust particles lies at the far reaches of the Saturnian system and its orbit is tilted 27 degrees from the planet's main ring plane, Nasa's jet propulsion laboratory said.A spokeswoman, Whitney Clavin, said the ring was very diffuse and did not reflect much visible light, but the infrared Spitzer space telescope was able to detect it. No one had looked at its location with an infrared instrument until now, Clavin said.The ring dust is very cold - minus 193C - but it shines with thermal radiation. The bulk of the material starts about 6m kilometres from the planet and extends outward about another 12m kilometres.Saturn was previously known to have seven main rings and several faint, unnamed rings.A paper on the discovery was to be published online today by the GuardianHas Obama Administration Gone A `Czar` Too Far?
