How come we don't get dank rings like saturn? All we get

if we throw more garbage then we should get ourselves some of those rings

You can! It's just that earthlings are lazy. All you need to do is get out of your chair, go outside, pick up a rock, and throw it straight up in the air. Just keep doing that until you see the rings

Saturn's rings are full of ice. Ice in Earth orbit would have sublimated very quickly and would be gone by now.

You might get away with large quartz flakes though. I am not sure how the Moon would affect such rings.

That would make the winters(and quite possibly the summers) more extreme.

Did earth have rings before the moon accreted?

>>9166466
Most likely yes.

Then the Moon had a huge impact which most likely caused a new ring forming.

I'm pretty sure the prevailing theory is
>Earth with no moon collides with nearby Mars-mass rocky body
>debris thrown into space
>debris accretes into Moon
As for how impressive they'd be I'm not sure, they wouldn't have been the fine dust and ice fields that make up Saturn's rings but more like a blobby cloud of rocks

>>9167910
Yes, that part is prevailing.

There is a secondary theory that later on, the Moon was hit by a large object that more or less coated large parts of the surface, explaining why he morphology and composition on the near and far sides are so different.

>All we get is a ring of space garbage we threw up there.

Maybe that's what Saturn's rings are.

During which time, it is an increasingly lopsided ring, though.

Earth's crust is full of silicates so I guess the rings would be pretty reflective.

What is the largest ring you can have without it being ripped apart by the lunar gravitational field?
