The ring would have gradually fallen to Earth as meteorites, correlating to a spike of impacts seen in the geological record.

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,

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 concluded that the Earth may have had a ring system similar to Saturn's based on the analysis of the location of craters on our planet. Scientists claim that over 450 million years ago,
