- has thousands of rings
- Saturn is made mostly out of hydrogen and helium
- Saturn is really far away so it would take 7 years to get there
- Saturn is before Uranus and after Jupiter
- Saturn has been known since ancient times
- formed when gravity pulled in gas and dust
- made out of the same 2 main things that the sun is made of
- Saturn spins the same way as Earth but faster
- The fast spin makes Saturn bulge out in the middle
- Saturn is the sixth planet in the solar system
- The temperatures, pressures and radiation levels are too extreme to have life
- Saturn's magnetic field is smaller than Jupiter's but still 578 times as powerful as Earth's

- Saturn experiences seasons (I was shocked too)
- Saturn's days are short, spinning once in 10.7 hours
- One year on Saturn is 29 Earth years 
- Saturn has a strong core made of rock, ice and water made solid by heat
- Saturn is less dense then water (Dense: closely compacted in substance)
- Saturn could float in a bathtub (A vary BIG bathtub)
- Saturn is 1.429 billion km away from the sun
- A day on Saturn is 10.656 hours long
- Saturn was formed 4.5 billion years ago
- Saturn provides a backdrop for numerous science fiction stories like WALL-E because of how beautiful it is

- made of billions of small chunks of ice and rock
- ring system extends up to 175,000 miles from the planet
- vertical height is typically about 30 feet
- the rings are relatively close to each other
- some of the rings are vary faint
- each ring orbits at a different speed

- the planet is tan and light brown in color, WHY? because of a mixture of yellow ammonia crystals in the upper atmosphere
- winds in the upper atmosphere reach 1,600 feet per second
- the pressure is the same of what you fell when you go under water
- a metal spacecraft would be smashed into Saturn because of it's intense gravity/atmosphere
- there is a hexagon shaped pattern on Saturn (about 20,000 miles across and is a wavy jet stream with a BIG rotating storm at the center)
