About 4 billion years ago, Saturn settled into its current position in the outer solar system, where it is the sixth planet from the Sun. Like Jupiter, Saturn is mostly made of hydrogen and helium, the same two main components that make up the Sun.
Saturn orbits the Sun at a distance of 9.59 AU (1,434 million km), with an orbital period of 29.45 years. Saturn's interior is thought to be composed of a rocky core, surrounded by a deep layer of metallic hydrogen, an intermediate layer of liquid hydrogen and liquid helium, and an outer layer of gas.

We address the global composition and its importance in studying the origin of the planet, and the meridional and vertical gradients in composition, stressing their insights into Saturn 's dynamics. We present the current 1D thermochemical and photochemical models, how these models fare to reproduce the observed composition, and the first ...
Saturn is the sixth planet from the Sun and the second largest planet in our solar system. Adorned with a dazzling system of icy rings, Saturn is unique among the planets. Saturn is a massive ball made mostly of hydrogen and helium.
16 Οκτ 2024 · Saturn, ringed planet that is the second largest planet in the solar system in mass and size and the sixth nearest planet in distance to the Sun. When viewed through even a small telescope, the planet encircled by its magnificent rings is arguably the most sublime object in the solar system.
1 Ιαν 2023 · Definition. Saturn by order of mass, size, and heliocentric distance is, after Jupiter, the second among the solar system’s giant planets. Its mean distance to the Sun is 9.5 AU. Its diameter is 120,530 km or 9.45 times the Earth’s diameter and its mass amounts to 95 terrestrial masses.
