since its discovery in 1610 from Saturn Ice base rings manage to leave mankind speechless with their beauty. Well, these rings, which from afar add a special beauty to the planet, and are thought to be composed of satellites and comets that shatter before they can reach it, how to stand on earth Have you ever thought?

In this content ‘Earth like Saturn if it had rings what would it look like?‘ and ‘How would it affect his life?‘ we will answer the questions. While it will make an impressive sight both from the outside and the world, there is a place behind these rings. doomsday scenario lies.

First, let’s talk briefly about how these rings are formed:

in 1847 by Edouard Roche putting forward’Roche limit‘ will clear up the question marks in our minds on this subject. The term in question roughly refers to a celestial body that is larger than a celestial body itself. able to access without fragmentation defined as the shortest distance.

As it approaches the said limit, the structure of the small celestial body deteriorates and if it exceeds this limit, to the parts leave. Later, the fragments separated from this object form a ring in the orbit of the large object.

Of course, not everything is so simple. Because when looking at the Roche limit, the two objects size, mass and density must be taken into account. Let’s assume that an object capable of forming a ring is approaching Earth.

Let’s start with the good side: we now have 24/7 visibility

The most favorable place for the formation of rings Equator region will be. So if you lived here, you might see a line dividing the sky in half.

• Ron Miller

Because our rings are formed in the equatorial region in the polar regions the living would face what appeared to be a hill on the horizon.

our rings, Los Angeles This is what it would look like from the city.

Polynesia This is what our rings would look like from the region.

And From Istanbul Those who looked to the sky would be faced with this view.

Let’s get to our doomsday scenario: First, there’s no more internet.

The vast majority of our satellites ensuring continuity of communication in our world above the equator consists. The rings we’re talking about won’t be ice, as our Earth is closer to the sun than Saturn, but this time there will be rocks. This means that our satellites themselves move almost as fast. will find among the rocks resources.

Elon Musk’s dreams of Mars keep on dreaming: Sending spacecraft has become impossible

The rocks that make up the planet’s ring are, in a sense, something that keeps the planet inside. barrier: he sees. This means that rockets taking off are like satellites. rock storm It means it stays inside. In other words, it will be necessary to find different/complex ways for both communication and exploration.

It’s not going well inside either: we’re dealing with meteor showers

Gravity objects from the moon in our ring continual try to pull. This will be visible at approximately the same time as the tide. meteor showers I mean, we’ll see. In this case, we advise you to stay away from the big coastal cities.

Astronomy is also hard hit:

Although the rock fragments reflect very little of the light that falls on them, many rocks in the rings on Earth do not cover the ring in question 24/7. visible will keep. This too performed at night It will annoy the people making the observations.

The weather is now twice as cold as ever, especially winters:

These rocks, which we say act as barriers, also greatly block the sunlight coming from outside. This too colder than ever eras will come. Especially the parts that lie in the shadow of the ring will be too cold to be habitable.

Finally: Those Rocks Won’t Stay There Forever

The ring of rocks that you will see all over the world will not be able to stand when the time comes. will disappear† But don’t let this disappearance appear in your mind as if it were to happen magically. The rocks that offer the fascinating view we see above from falling to the earth’s surface we talk about.

We’ve come to the end of our content where we explain what the Earth would look like if it had rings like Saturn and what could happen on it. Since there are so many variables in such matters, we can only go through theories. For this reason, if you are interested in the subject, we recommend that you consult scientific articles for the follow-up.
