Saturn

Introduction

Have you ever wondered about Saturn?

this is a report about it.

Appearance

Saturns rings are made out of dust and ice also some pieces of rocks. It is light brown and saturn's rings are thick also saturn is a gas giant just like jupiter. The ice is reflective so the rings appear. Saturn is a very cold place.Also the rings on saturn were not always there, other plants crashed in to it. I wonder if saturn has different colours on it.

The size of Saturn  is 120,000 km also Saturn is half the size of Earth.Mars is the second smallest planet in our solar system and Saturn is not heavy at all. Saturns rings are

bright, and Saturn is is colourful.A planet day is the time it takes the planet to rotate or spin once on its axis.Also Saturn rotates faster than Earth.
