Saturn is the sixth planet from the sun and is known for its prominent ring system. It has a diameter of about 120,000 km at the equator but is noticeably flattened at the poles. Saturn has a low density of only 690 kg/m3, making it the only planet that would float on water if a large enough body of it existed. The planet is composed primarily of hydrogen and helium.

2. Saturno
Saturn is the sixth planet from
the sun, is second in size after
Jupiter's mass and is the only
one with a ring system visible
from Earth. Its name comes
from the Roman god Saturn. It
is part of the so-called
gaseous outer planets, also
called Jovian for its
resemblance to Jupiter. The
most characteristic aspect of
Saturn are the bright rings.
Before the invention of the
telescope, Saturn was the
farthest of the planets known
and, at first glance, it seemed
bright and interesting.

3. Planet Saturn is visibly flattened
at the poles with a protruding
Ecuador forming an oval spheroid.
The equatorial and polar diameters
are respectively 120,536 and
108,728 km. This effect is
produced by the rapid rotation of
the planet, its fluid nature and its
relatively low gravity. The other
giant planets are also oval but not
so heavily. Saturn has a specific
gravity of 690 kg / m³ is the only
planet in the solar system with a
density less than water (1000 kg /
m³). If there is a bowl of water
large enough to introduce Saturn,
this float. The planet is composed
of 90% hydrogen and 5% helium.
The volume of the planet is enough
to contain 740 times the Earth, but
its mass is only 95 times the land,
due to the aforementioned average
relative density.
