Impact craters found around the Earth that were made around the same time could be linked to debris falling from a ring, a new study suggests.

Evidence suggests Earth had a ring system 466 million years ago, causing a surge in meteorite impacts and possibly influencing the planet's climate.

Scientists have proposed a fascinating new idea: Earth may have once possessed a ring system, akin to that of Saturn. These rings could have formed around 466 million years ago, during a tumultuous era marked by intense meteorite bombardment known as the Ordovician impact spike.

Researchers have found evidence suggesting that the Earth may have once had a system of Saturn-like rings. The rings are theorized to have formed 466 million years ago during one of the coldest periods in the planet's history, known as the Ordovician.

Earth and Saturn might be a lot more similar than previously thought. In a new study, a team of researchers suggests that 466 million years ago, a ring system made up of asteroid remnants may have surrounded our planet,

In a discovery that challenges our understanding of Earth's ancient history, researchers have found evidence suggesting that Earth may have had a ring system that formed around 466 million years ago,

A new study from Monash University scientists suggests that Earth may have had a ring system that formed around 466 million years ago, during the middle Ordovician, from ca. 466 Ma. The findings challenge our understanding of Earth’s ancient history.
