Saturn has finally joined its fellow solar system giant planets as the parent of trailing asteroids called "Trojans." But the gas giant, mostly known for its spectacular rings, may have cheated a little to fit in with its contemporaries, Jupiter, Neptune and Uranus.
Saturn seems to have snatched its first known Trojan asteroid, designated 2019 UO14, a few thousand years ago as the space rock was "bouncing" around the solar system. Additionally, because the orbit of this Saturnian Trojan is unstable, Saturn seems to be a terrible parent that will lose this cosmic hanger-on in around 1,000 years.
