Through the telescope WISE space agency NASA to analyze in 2009 was found that there were many small components planets gathered every circle. It is a bizarre group of scientists is studying to focus on factors that causes a phenomenon of physics together and their life span.

The above findings suggest that Phoebe circle distance from Saturn, about 3.7 million miles. It consists of meat horizon stretches about 10 million miles and the vertical than 1.5 million mothers miles, which makes it larger than the previous expectation of 10 times, according to the assertion of astronomers dong Las Ha Mei Dalton and partners other at the University of Mary Elaine in the journal Nature.
