Given the fact that they’re not terribly stable, and we can see them being formed, I’m shocked that they were ever claimed to be ancient.

The so called young rings theory dates the formation to 100 MM years ago. Seems a lot older than the young creationist behind this the linked site claiming the universe is under 10,000 years old.

It only makes sense.

The rings were formed much later than the planet.....................

Not doubting this, but do “planetary scientists” also worship the gods who tell us that WE are raising the temperature of the earth?

So I’m going to go out on the limb here, and predict Earth will have rings within 40 years.

Because the Sun said to Jupiter:

“If you like it, then you’d better put a ring on it.”
