The Planet Saturn Mia and Kaylah

Saturn Facts Saturn is the sixth planet from the sun. It is the second largest in the solar system Saturn has an equatorial diameter of 119,300 km, and an Equatorial Radius of 60,268 km Its days are 10 hours, 39 minutes long, and it takes 29.5 Earth years to revolve about the Sun. Near the equator, the wind reaches velocities of 500 meters a second. The wind blows mostly in an easterly direction. 31 moons Saturn is a gas planet

More Facts In 1610, Italian astronomer Galileo Galilei was the first to gaze at Saturn through a telescope. In 1659, Dutch astronomer Christiaan Huygens, using a more powerful telescope than Galileo's, proposed that Saturn was surrounded by a thin, flat ring. Distance from the Sun: 1,426,725,400 km While the other three gas planets in the solar system - Jupiter, Uranus and Neptune - have rings orbiting around them, Saturn's are by far the largest and most spectacular.

Even more facts! Missions : Pioneer 11, Voyager 1 and 2 and Cassini-Huygens Saturn is not a sphere Saturn is the root of the English word "Saturday“ Saturn is in the outer solar system

Interesting bit’s of info You can see Saturn at night with the naked eye and it is easy to identify because it doesn't "twinkle" like stars do. Saturn is named after the roman god of agriculture. Titan, Saturn's largest and the Solar System's second largest moon (after Jupiter's Ganymede), is larger than the planet Mercury and is the only moon in the Solar System to possess a significant atmosphere.
