Actually, Saturn is the least dense of all planets, the only planet less dense than water, at 687.00 kg/m³.
Saturn
Saturn has more moons than Venus. Saturn is second to Jupiter.
no, it only has 1 while saturn has many more
Helium is more abundant on Jupiter than on Saturn. Jupiter has a higher concentration of helium in its atmosphere compared to other planets in the solar system, including Saturn.
The outer planets. The four inner planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars) are similar to Earth - relatively small, and with a rocky surface. The four outer planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranos, Neptune) are gas giants - between 5 and 11 times the diameter of Earth, and made up mainly of gas. They don't have a solid surface you can step on - just gas that gets denser as you go deeper inside.
Saturn's rings are prominent because they are larger and more extensive than those of other planets, making them more easily visible without a telescope. Additionally, Saturn's rings are brighter due to their high reflectivity, which makes them stand out even more in the night sky. Finally, the rings were discovered before those of other planets, leading to greater familiarity and public awareness.
They're all distant. The gas giants (Jupiter, Saturn) are more distant than the inner planets (Mars, Venus). Exoplanets (planets around other stars are even (far) more distant.

Terrestrial Planets are more dense than Jovian planets because terrestrial planets are mainly made of solids such as rock and metal, whilst Jovian planets are mainly made of gasses, and the density of solids is much higher than that of gases
Saturn is not very dense... or solid. It is a giant ball of gas. Water is more dense that Saturn, therefore, Saturn would float on water. ________________ More specifically, the density of Saturn is 0.69, where water is 1.0. So if Saturn were a solid (which it is not), it would float. Saturn is by far the least dense of all the planets; even Uranus at 1.32 and Jupiter at 1.33 are more dense than water is. Earth is the MOST dense planet at 5.52, edging out Mercury at 5.43 and Venus at 5.24 in average density.
No. There are eight planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune) five dwarf planets and a few more dwarf planet candidates. There are other objects in orbit around our sun, but these are too small to be classed as planets.
Yes, this is true. The more massive planets are gaseous. The relatively small inner planets are rocky, which means the are more dense. The gaseous planets make up for there low density with immense size. For example: Jupiter has 1,000 times the volume of Earth, although it is 300 times more massive than the Earth.
