There are three theories on how Saturn got its rings:
1. Gravitational disruption of satellites: Saturn's gravitational pull tears anything apart that gets too close, and the fragments become part of the ring system.
2. Fragmentation of moons: moons of Saturn collide with each other and other bolides and break up, the fragments of which form Saturn's rings.
3. Accretionary remnant: rings are formed from primordial debris that was not accreted to form Saturn initially.
