SATURN PLANET

Saturn is the sixth planet from the sun and the second largest planet in the solar
system. Saturn was the root of the english word “Saturday”.

Saturn is the farthest planet from earth visible to the naked human eye, but it is
trough a telescope that the planet’s most outstanding features can be seen:
saturn’s rings. Altough the other gas giants in the solar system – jupier, uranus
and neptune – also have rings, those of saturn are without a doubt the most
extraordinary.

Saturn is a gas giant made up mostly of hydrogen and helium. Saturn is big
enough to hold more than 760 earth, and is more massive than any other planet
except jupiter, roughly 95 times earth’s mass. However, saturn has the lowest
density of all the planets, and is the only one less dense than water – if there
were a buthtub big enough to hold it, saturn would float.

The yellow and gold bands seen in saturn’s atmosphere, which can reach up to
1,100 mph (1.800 km/h) around it equator, combined with heat rising from the
planet’s interior.
