I couldn't help wondering what if we sent astronaughts to Saturn to build a colony and they didn't know this invisible ring was around the planet LOL Sure would have made the trip interesting!

What would you build it on? and they didn't know this invisible ring was around the planet LOL Sure would have made the trip interesting! Actually - they wouldn't have any more trouble than the satellites have had. For one, there's a better chance of missing the ring than hitting it. Second, the particles aren't that big. From the article (here): "The ring itself is tenuous, made up of a thin array of ice and dust particles. Spitzer's infrared eyes were able to spot the glow of the band's cool dust."
