Two more rings around Uranus discovered |

The planet, that is: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20051222/ap_on_sc/uranus_rings;_ylt=AknDHYRo0fNVdKzV4cOFyuis0NUE;_ylu=X3oDMTA3b2NibDltBHNlYwM3MTY-The newly discovered rings are made up of short-lived, faint bands of dust grains that are constantly being replenished by erosion of larger space bodies. Scientist think the dust in the outermost ring is being supplied by the moon Mab, discovered in 2003.

I know it's juvenile, but I laughed when the pretty female reporter had to read the last line of the story "Uranus is seven times the size of the earth".
