The Ringed Planet |

|
Saturn is the second biggest planet, but it’s also the lightest planet. If there was a bathtub big enough to hold Saturn, it would float in the water! It looks like a big ball inside of rings. Saturn's atmosphere has winds which can blow at over 1800 kilometres per hour! The white spots on Saturn are powerful storms. Saturn is surrounded by over 1000 rings made of ice and dust. Some of the rings are very thin and some are very thick. The size of the particles in the rings range from pebble-size to house-size. Saturn has at least 18 known moons. Some of these moons orbit the planet within the rings. |
