Next time you come round your rings will be flatter. Not fair!

Here ya go ving!

[ving (David)]

yeah, it'd be great to see that thru my telescope!
now thats what I am talking bout!

In about 4 years time the rings of Ringo will be almost invisible as they will be flat-on to us. At least we've got a while to enjoy the views.

After another year they should be easily noticable again although thin.

I WAS going to mention that Ken, yep. I was thinking..."surely the rings wont have changed THAT much when saturn sticks it's head out the other side of the sun" lol.
