Hehe, good point. But this one is even bigger! And no one had seen it before, apparently.

See, that makes no sense. This is a dust ring that is even BIGGER than the others, but it has never been seen before. Yet its been observed since the time of Gallilaeo :? (well, actualy he saw Jupiter, but you get the point).
