made of icedust
dance around a ring
in a circle of rings
so majestic
man has ever
yearned to know
their secret.
The secret
of the shining bands
that circle Saturn,
still spinning off
dust, energy and ice
making moonlets
that hug the mother ring
that gave them birth.
Newborns in space
New moons in time
whispering the secret
God is not done.
"An MSNBC story from June 9th states that scientists have discovered that Saturn's rings have been birthing Moons from energy reactions that are occurring with dust and ice found on the rings. The discovery of Saturn's moons being the offspring of its rings is a new concept for scientists. Kim Clement's prophecy, which was spoken before the news was announced, specifically refers to Saturn's rings, dust, ice and energy."

The rings of Saturn might have given birth to the giant planet's odd, small moons, scientists now reveal. These unusual moons, some of which resemble flying saucers, might have clumped together from the bits of ice and dust that make up Saturn's majestic bands.
"There are still new objects forming in the solar system today," said planetary scientist Sebastien Charnoz at the Universite Paris Diderot in France. "We used to think everything was formed four, five billion years ago, but no! New objects are still forming today." . . ."This tells us that there are different ways to form solar system bodies," he added. "It tells us also that giant planets' environment are much more dynamic than previously thought and that we have still a lot of things to learn."
