Saturn's Supersized Ring - A New Discovery

Check out how super this SUPERSIZE ring is!
The reason why it was not discovered till now was the ring can only be detected with infra-red devices and no one had looked for it until recently. The ice and dust that form the ring are very diffused for normal equipment to detect. This ring starts about 3.7 million miles from Saturn and extends outward about another 7.4 million miles.
