Someone told me about this video and I tweeted it. Many retweets later I thought I would share it on the blog too. What if the Earth had rings? This video explores how it would look ,not just from space but also from various places on the Earth.

Hiya Robert

Have been following your site for a while and have never posted anything, here, before…..but here it is
This Youtube item regarding Earths rings is fascinating, I’m assuming that the colours of the rings would change, depending upon their composition…….hypothetically of course.
Good Luck with the conference
