6th Part

Saturn 🪐

The next planet is Saturn, the sixth planet from the Sun and the second-largest in our solar system.  Like Jupiter, Saturn is a gas giant composed mainly of hydrogen and helium.

Its most famous feature is its spectacular system of rings, which are made of billions of tiny pieces of ice, dust, and rock. Though Jupiter and other gas giants also have rings, none are as prominent and beautiful as Saturn's.

Here are a few more interesting facts about Saturn:

It has the lowest density of any planet in the solar system. In fact, it's so light that it would float in water.

Saturn has at least 146 moons. Its largest moon, Titan, is bigger than the planet Mercury and has a thick atmosphere.
