New research reveals more about why Saturn's large moon tilts, a puzzle that has intrigued scientists for decades.

A distant planet has rings so large it makes Saturn look like a child's toy. But, until now, scientists have been baffled about how the enormous rings keep from self-destructing. The answer: spin.

These images of Saturn's rings spinning gently around the planet were taken by Voyager 2 in 1981. Its twin, Voyager 1, had passed the gas giant a few months earlier.

Saturn's tilt precesses — that is, shifts over time, much like how a spinning top leans back and forth before it falls over — at nearly the same rate as the orbit of Neptune. This link is due ...

Astronomers have suspected before that Saturn’s axial tilt comes from gravitational interactions with its outer companion, Neptune, because Saturn’s tilt precesses, like a spinning top, at nearly the ...
