Rings of Chariklo

The minor planet and centaur 10199 Chariklo , with a diameter of about 250 kilometres (160 mi), is the smallest celestial object with confirmed rings and the fifth ringed celestial object ever discovered in the Solar System , after the gas giants and ice giants . [1] Orbiting Chariklo is a bright ring system consisting of two narrow and dense bands, 6–7 km (4 mi) and 2–4 km (2 mi) wide, separated by a gap of 9 kilometres (6 mi). [1] [2] The rings orbit at distances of about 400 kilometres (250 mi) from the centre of Chariklo, a thousandth the distance between Earth and the Moon . The discovery was made by a team of astronomers using ten telescopes at various locations in Argentina, Brazil, and Chile in South America during observation of a stellar occultation on 3 June 2013, and was announced on 26 March 2014.
