Saturn’s rings, however, are much more prominent and extend for 170,000 miles. This is about 2.25 times Saturn’s diameter, and 70 per cent of the distance from Earth to the moon. Despite this extent, though, Saturn’s rings are less than one-half mile thick.
The ringed planet's equatorial diameter is about 75,000 miles, so nearly 9.5 Earths could fit across its surface. Like most planets, Saturn has an equatorial bulge, meaning its width (diameter at the equator) is greater than its height (diameter at the poles, which is about 68,000 miles.
For centuries Saturn has been referred to as the “ringed planet”. It wasn’t until the 1970s-80s that we learned that Jupiter, Uranus

, and Neptune also have ring systems.
Saturn’s greater distance also means that it needs much more time than Earth to orbit the sun. While there are 365 Earth days in each Earth year, there are 29.5 Earth years (nearly 11,000 Earth days) in each Saturn year. At this rate, a man would be ready to retire not too long after celebrating his second birthday on Saturn.
Saturn's Moons
Saturn

, which turns so quickly on its axis that a day is only 10.5 hours long, also has strong winds that blow up to 1100 miles per hour. Earth’s strongest winds “only” reach 250 miles per hour.
Due to intense heat created in Saturn’s interior, the planet radiates more energy into space than it receives from the sun, which is about 1.4 billion kilometers (880 million miles) away – over nine times the distance from Earth to the sun. Because of this distance, sunlight that takes eight minutes to reach Earth needs another hour and ten minutes to reach Saturn.
If the thickness of Saturn's rings was scaled down to equal the thickness of a dollar bill, then 58 dollar bills could be lined up end-to-end (totaling 30 feet) to get the equivalent span of Saturn’s rings. Taking this analogy one step further, if a hockey rink’s center circle (with a convenient diameter of 30 feet) was covered with the dollar bills, the entire circle would equal the span of the rings and the dollars the thickness.

It is one of the four gas giant planets and is the least dense planet in our solar system. In fact, Saturn's density is so low that it would float in water (if a large enough bathtub could be found.)

Saturn's Physical Characteristics
In 1997, scientists knew of 18 moons circling Saturn. Today the number is 62, and that number will likely increase as scientists use ever-more advanced techniques for studying the planet. The largest moon of Saturn - Titan - is bigger than the planet Mercury.
Saturn, known by many people as the ringed planet, is named after the Roman god of agriculture and is the namesake of Saturday. Like Jupiter, Saturn is comprised of about 75 per cent hydrogen, 25 per cent helium, and only some traces of other elements.
Saturn's core is solid and perhaps the size of Earth. The rotation of this core creates a strong magnetic field that, like Earth’s magnetic field, interacts with charged particles emanating from the Sun to create aurorae.
Distance to Saturn
In March 2010 Saturn returns to the early evening sky and is easily visible with the unaided eye. Through a telescope its rings, atmospheric features
