在曾经是小行星现在只是一个锯齿状的尘埃环，包围像土星环一个地球。
What was once the asteroid is now just a jagged ring of dust, encircling the Earth like one of the rings of Saturn.
因为土星环几乎纯粹由水冰构成-而外太阳系的物质构成通常是冰岩混合物。
Because the rings are almost pure water ice-and material in the outer solar system is generally an ice-rock mix.
这个太阳系中最大的光环的轨迹距离土星800万英里，比其他土星环远50倍。
The ring, the largest in the solar system, surrounds the planet from a distance of 8m miles, about 50 times further out than the others.
也许是土星环上的结冰物质落在了卫星上，在它们的赤道附近堆积了起来造成了隆起。
Perhaps icy material from the rings fell onto them, piling up near the equator to form the ridges.

这些水分至今还以冰冻的形式存在于土星环，木星的卫星欧罗巴，海王星、天王星以及数以十亿计的彗星之中。
Most of it is still there, frozen solid in, among other things, the rings of Saturn, Jupiter's moon Europa, the bodies of Neptune and Uranus and billions upon billions of comets.
也是在春分点，广阔的土星环的影子被压缩成一层很窄带子投射在这个行星上，这也可以在组图中看到。
Also at equinox, the shadows of the planet's expansive rings are compressed into a single, narrow band cast onto the planet as seen in this Mosaic.
在人类的一艘环土星探测器——卡西尼号进入环土星轨道后，它向地球发回了土星环(部分)的图片。
After becoming the first spacecraft to enter Saturn's orbit, Cassini sent back this image of a portion of the planet's rings.
在这个土星环的模拟图像中，颜色是用来表达基于三个无线电信号测量结果而得出的不同区域中环颗粒大小的信息。
In this simulated image of Saturn's rings, color is used to present information about ring particle sizes in different regions based on the measured effects of three radio signals.
这样的艺术表现就是为了让它看起来像是一幅红外影像，我觉得这样会有助于人们理解这圈土星环在红外线下才是可见的。
Doing an artist's rendering that is designed to look like an infrared image I thought would help people to better understand that this ring can only be seen in the infrared.
卡西尼号远离土星环而观察到的每个信号的变化提供了一份环材料分布的侧写。这是一个距土星距离的函数，或是一个光学深度剖面。
The observed changeof each signal as Cassini moved behind the rings provided a profile ofthe distribution of ring material as a function of distance fromSaturn, or an optical depth profile.
所以要在这一幅包括行星在内的整个系统的图像中使土星环显现出来，土星环黑暗的一半被增亮了60倍，而明亮的一半被增亮了20倍。
So the dark half of the rings is 60 timesbrighter, and the bright half 20 times brighter, than they would haveappeared if the entire system, planet included, could have beencaptured in a single image.
