Neptune's rings were initially thought to be composed of ice and dust particles, similar to the rings of Saturn. However, further observations revealed that they are primarily made up of small, dark particles, possibly consisting of organic compounds and other materials. These rings are relatively faint and are believed to be much younger than those of Saturn. Their existence challenges previous assumptions about planetary ring formation and stability.
