A ringed Earth-like orbiting no less than five Stars!
An one in a lifetime find.
So far also the Earth-like orbiting the most stars (did not get added to galactic records though, as this category does not exist).
I don't think someone even found an Earth-like with more suns in one system to date.

Fine by me
If you've seen/remember this image.
Here's the system.
I've only taken the main star in both systems and the planet I landed on for the screenshot.

Here's the system.

Now you've got to find one with a ring on it
What! But you...don't you know how long it...are you...I've been out here for...organised 1,000 peope to...!?
*sighs and starts scanning, mumbling something about nothing's ever good enough*

In the immortal words of Ms. Knowles. if you like then you shoulda put a ring on it:

I just got some weird looks at the office from laughing so hard at this. Well played, sir. Well played.
Those Gas Dwarfs
at the end of the line seem like potential record breakers in smallest/lightest gas giant category. Did you check them?Those Gas Dwarfs
Nah, dont care about records so didnt even occur in to my mind to check.
The address is there, someone go and check it out if you want.
Best rep I ever gave. I guess I could fling a moon at it and then smash it and put a ring on it

Or you could just "gently nudge" it into low orbit until it breaks apart from tidal gravity.

Bit off topic, but offhand and not having professional experience in this field, it would seem to me that the gravitational difference across the orbiting object would have to be greater than the effective "local gravity" holding the object together.
Is that essentially correct, or is there more to it?
Cheers.

I'm not sure if this a record, but it is certainly the largest ring I have seen around a simple Jovian gas giant;
Those four bright dots within the ring are moons, not stars in the distance.

I'm not sure what is more unusual, find something like this around a humble L-star, or the fact that I (someone) took the effort to open the system map.
a red giant with a solar radius of 0.4
