Now scientists have discovered a new class of complex folding molecules that emerge spontaneously from simple building blocks. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/01/190117110824.htm

In its last days, the Cassini spacecraft looped between Saturn and its rings so that Earth-based radio telescopes could track the gravitational tug of each. Scientists have now used these measurements to determine the mass of the rings and estimate its age, which is young: 10-100 million years. This supports the hypothesis that the rings are rubble from a comet or Kuiper Belt object captured late in Saturn's history. from Top Technology News -- ScienceDaily https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/01/190117142159.htm
