Saturn has no solid surface as Earth does, and water cannot exist in liquid form in the dense lower atmosphere (mostly hydrogen), because it is too hot. But the rings of Saturn are almost entirely composed of water ice.

Which planet do astronomers think has water?

Astronomers believe that Mars has water, primarily in the form of ice, and there is evidence of seasonal liquid water flows on its surface. Additionally, scientists have detected water vapor in the atmospheres of several exoplanets and the icy moons of Jupiter and Saturn, such as Europa and Enceladus, which also harbor subsurface oceans.


Do scientists think that there was once life on Saturn?

Scientists think there was once "life on Saturn" only in highly imaginative science fiction stories. There is no solid surface beneath its clouds, only a hydrogen atmosphere that gets incredibly dense and hot deep inside. However, the moons (such as Titan) could have liquid water below their crusts. Even if this is so, there is very little sunlight that far from the Sun, the moons are frigidly cold, and the chance of plant life as we know it is extremely low.
