How Did Saturns rings Form? Saturn rings were formed when objects like comets, astroids and moons broke up in orbit around saturn due to saturns very strong gravity. The pieces of these objects kept colliding with each other and broke into even smaller pieces. These pieces gradually spread around Saturn to form its rings. These rings are made of billions of pieces of dust, rocks and ice. Some of these particles are as small as a grain of salt while others can be as big as houses ​
