: In the universe we know, Information travels with the speed of light. The Star/Planet (The Doctor says both) is probably a brown dwarf, which is a mixture of planet and star. Maybe it is even a mixture of red dwarf and brown dwarf. The Rings have a certain distance to the star. So when the star explodes, the information needs some time to reach the rings, maybe 1 minute. In contrast to this, the Doctor can immediately see the star implode, which should normaly take also 1 minute. So for a small time the rings stay stable, but then they drift away in a straight line, from where they have been. What the people of the asteroids do then is not mentioned. They will probably flee. | |||
