[VIDEO] Rings - exploring a huge ring system

Greae Phio DL-Y e9 12 has one of the largest and widest rings seen anywhere in the Milky Way. They are so large that they must count as a proto-planetary disc.

Inner radius: 65.6 ls
Outer radius: 104 ls
Width of ring: 38.4 ls
Diameter: 208 ls
Circumference: 653.5 ls

I've included a video of my travels around the system and investigating the nature of the circumstellar disc.
It's slow paced, but hopefully you appreciate the sheer scale of this ring system.
