A mosaic of the planet and the tilt of the ring between 2024 and 2025 based on my images made using a Mak Cassegrain 18 cm from Rome Italy. I was also able to make animation of the ring tilted and image. Galileo Galilei, my compatriot, was the first to observe the rings of Saturn in 1610 using his telescope, but was unable to identify them as such.He also described the rings as Saturn's "ears". In 1612 the Earth passed through the plane of the rings and they became invisible. Mystified, Galileo remarked "I do not know what to say in a case so surprising, so unlooked for and so novel." He was further confused when the rings again became visible in 1613.
