Jupiter's rings were discovered in 1979 by the passing Voyager 1 spacecraft, but their origin was a mystery. Data from the Galileo spacecraft that orbited Jupiter from 1995 to 2003 later confirmed that these rings were created by meteoroid impacts on small nearby moons. Why does Jupiter have rings? Discovery and exploration: Scientists had long suspected Jupiter was circled by rings before NASA's Voyager 1 spacecraft confirmed it during the probe's flyby of the gas giant in 1979. Voyager's wide- and narrow-angle cameras took an 11-minute exposure of Jupiter's ring plane. The wide angle cameras were overexposed by glare from Jupiter itself, but the narrow angle cameras captured the Jupiter's ring system is composed of three parts: a flat main ring; a halo inside the main ring, shaped like a double-convex lens; and the gossamer ring, exterior to the main ring. Jupiter's ring system is exceptionally faint because the particles that make up the rings are so small and sparse that they do not reflect much light. Jupiter - Rings, Moons, Gas Giant: As the Pioneer 10 spacecraft sped toward its closest approach to Jupiter in 1974, it detected a sudden decrease in the density of charged particles roughly 125,000 km (78,000 miles) from Jupiter, just inside the orbit of its innermost moon, Metis. This led to the suggestion that a moon or a ring of material might be orbiting the planet at this distance.
