Mystery of Rhea - the second largest moon 🌙 of Saturn. In 2005, the Cassini orbiter 🛰 found that Rhea’s magnetic field is depleted of energetic electrons which indicated that the moon might contain a thin ring system (in addition to water ice). However, in 2010 a narrow-angle camera 📷 did not find evidence of rings. Thus, the question as to whether Rhea contains a ring system is still unresolved but if one is found, it will be the first time a ring system is found around a moon! .
