 Saturn
is the sixth planet in our
solar system and is the second
largest planet.
 Saturn is a gas giant along with
three others in our solar system.
 Saturn
orbits the sun at a speed
of around 9.69km/s.
 Saturn finish's on revolution
around the sun in around 29.5
Earth years.
 Saturn
rotates at different speed
depending on certain parts are above or
under the equator. The parts below the
equator rotate at a 10 hour and 39
minutes speed and above the equator
rotate at a speed of 10 hours 14 minutes.
 Saturn’s
distance from the sun is very
far do to it is the sixth planet away from
the sun. Saturn’s average distance from
the sun is about 1.4 billion km away or
9 AU. Since our solar system is not a
complete circle Saturn can be closer to
the sun and farther away from the sun.
Saturn’s
gravity is less than
Earth’s even though it is the
second largest planet this is
due to the gases on Saturn.
Saturn’s gravity is 10.44 m/s2.
 Saturn’s atmosphere is made up of
around 96% of hydrogen and around 3%
of helium. The other 1% of Saturn’s
atmosphere is made up of methane and
ice water.

Saturn’s temperature is very cool, Saturn’s average
temperature is -178 degrees Celsius. Saturn can get
much hotter as you make your way to Saturn’s core.
Saturn has three layers of clouds which affects the
temperature on Saturn. The first or upper layer of
Saturn the average temperature is -113 C, the
second or middle layers average temperature is -88
C, and lastly the bottom layers average temperature
is 50 C.
 Weather
on Saturn is very cooled
it is very windy. Saturn’s winds
can reach speeds up to 1,000 M/H.
Saturn is a gas giant so it is
composed with helium and
hydrogen.
 Saturn’s composition
as you
see to the right shows the
composition. The core of
Saturn is rock and ice.
Saturn is mainly composed
of hydrogen and helium.

Saturn’s surface area is 42.7 billion k.m².

Saturn’s volume is 827,129,915,150,897 km3
Saturn’s
mass
is
568.3E24
kg

 Saturn’s density is 687.00 kg/m3

Saturn has many
surrounding objects,
some of them are 150
moons surrounding
Saturn Including the
rings they make up
90% of Saturn’s mass.

moon of the planet Saturn.

In 1973 a space probe called Pioneer II captured the first
up close pictures of Saturn. There were two other
voyages to Saturn and its largest moon Titan. The most
resent mission to Saturn was in Saturn’s orbit in 2004.
Cassini stayed in Saturn’s orbit to study new moons and
even new rings.
This is a photo of the
mission badge for the
mission to observe Saturn.
Saturn is named after a Roman god
Saturn’s biggest moon is named Titan
 The day Saturday was named after Saturn
 Saturn is least dense planet in our solar
system
 Saturn is not the only planet with rings
