The War on Saturnalia

Never mind the War on Christmas that Fox TV pundits have been pushing for the past decade or so, the real news is a war on Saturnalia, by which I mean that the planet Saturn is destined to lose its signature rings.

The idea of Saturn losing its rings is just a tad upsetting to this nerdy boy. I mean, Saturn without rings is sad and weak, like Uranus It's a good thing that the Cassini probe visited Saturn in its be-ringed glory days, another hundred million years or so, and it may have been too late.

  1. What are these astronomical party-poopers saying about the rings of Jupiter, Uranus and Neptune?

  2. I think the general gist is that that's the condition that Saturn will devolve to. SAD
