In all, data for the asteroid was found over the years 2015 to 2024—enough to confirm that it is indeed a Trojan asteroid of Saturn. The research team has found that 2019 UO 14 takes ...

Saturn has finally joined the solar system's other giant planets in possessing a Trojan asteroid, but it may have stolen it.

A small international team of astronomers and astrophysicists has confirmed that asteroid 2019 UO14 is a Trojan asteroid of Saturn. The team has posted a paper describing their study of the ...

Saturn seems to have snatched its first known Trojan asteroid, designated 2019 UO14, a few thousand years ago as the space rock was "bouncing" around the solar system.Additionally, because the ...

Saturn is known for its stunning rings and its many moons (four seen here), but they aren’t the planet’s only companions. Its first known Trojan — an asteroid that shares the planet’s ...

Earth may have had a ring made up of a broken asteroid over 400 million years ago, a study finds. The Saturn-like feature could explain a climate shift at the time.

While Saturn's rings are the best known, Jupiter, Uranus and Neptune also have rings. And now, a new study published in the scientific journal Earth and Planetary Science Letters seems to show ...

Stock image of the Earth with rings. Researchers have suggested that the Earth may once have had rings just like Saturn over 400 million years ago.

The closest the Earth ever comes to Saturn is about 746-million miles, so it’s giant leap to even pick out a few of its moons from this distance, let alone tracking 274 separate moons in orbit.

NASA finds key ingredients of life in asteroid samples 03:46. Asteroid samples fetched by NASA hold not only the pristine building blocks for life but also the salty remains of an ancient water ...
