I heard that they are somewhere out there orbiting Saturn. The Hubble Telescope has sent images back to scientists that show these tiny spherical objects wreaking havoc on the ring pattern. I don't know how to tell you this, but you lost those marbles in 1984. You only now have realized it. Read this article that proves my case.

Now it is emerging that an event around 25 years ago dramatically disrupted the rings - and all our telescopes and spacecraft missed it. This mysterious event suddenly warped the planet's innermost rings into a ridged spiral pattern, like the grooves on a vinyl record. The latest images reveal that the perturbation is so vast that only a profound change to the planet can have caused it.

The first hint that Saturn's rings had been perturbed came in 2006 from NASA's Cassini spacecraft, which took pictures of the planet's innermost ring, a tenuous, icy band called the D ring. Cassini found alternating light and dark bands that suggested the ring was not perfectly flat, but was composed of grooves, about a kilometre in amplitude.

I suggest you meet with NASA and 'fess up to what happened and see if they will help you recover them.
