Best Answer

Saturn's rings are more prominent than the rings of planets behind them because of their size, composition, and how they form. Astronomers discovered the darkened rings beyond Saturn on Uranus and Neptune by noticing that the stars behind the planet darkened before it actually passed in front of them.
