Did I miss a memo ?

Doing a bit of sight seeing whilst in the bubble....

When/how did Jupiter, Uranus and Neptune get their own rings ?

Did I miss a memo ?
Did they get engaged ?
Is there some Elite Lore to explain this ?

Several billion years ago.

They're not as reflective as Saturn's so not so obvious from Earth but they are there.

Aand the immature Uranus jokes inevitably begin. It's a good job they rename it to "Urectum" in the future to avoid that kind of thing. And yea, the mentioned planets have rings but all are much harder to see than Saturn's - I often observed it through my telescope, but you can't see the rings at this distance.

They should really be called "mature" Uranus jokes because they have been around for so long. I thought there was a whole generation of people who only know the adjusted pronunciation.

...all us old folks, we know how it's pronounced.
