What makes Saturn different from other planets?
The very distinct difference between Saturn and all the other planets is it has an Asteroid ring / belt. Saturn has its own asteroid belt and no other planet does.
How did space probe Galileo get pasted the asteroid belt?
Just like all of the rest of the solar system, the asteroid belt is mostly empty space. The probability (chances) of hitting something on the way through it is mathematically greater than it is while sailing through some other part of the solar system, but it isn't anywhere near a sure thing.
Is Uranus inside or outside the asteroid belt?
The asteroid belt is located between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. As such, the outer planets (or Jovian planets) can be said to be outside the asteroid belt. That is, they are located beyond the belt and are therefore further away from the sun than the belt.
Is Uranus a iner plant or a outere planet?
The outer planets are those on the other side of the Asteroid Belt away from the Sun. They are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. The inner planets are inside the Asteroid Belt towards the Sun. They are Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars. Uranus is an outer planet.
What other planet did a space probe go to other than Mars?
Taking all countries into consideration: There is a probe on it's way to Mercury right now. It will spend a couple of years orbiting Mercury mapping and doing other tests. There have been several different probes landed on Venus. There has been an army of different probes landed on Mars over the years. There has been at least one probe dropped down through the clouds of Jupiter. Saturn has had several fly-by photographic missions, but I don't believe anything has been dropped down through it's clouds as of yet. But Titan, Saturn's largest moon, has had a probe dropped to it's surface (Titan is the only moon in the solar system with an atmosphere). Uranus and Neptune: Fly-by only. There is a probe headed toward Pluto right now that is supposed to get close-up photographs about 2015.

What is Jupiter next too?
The Planet Jupiter is between the planet Saturn and the asteroid belt. On the other side of the asteroid belt is the planet Mars.
How is Saturn unique?
The Community answer below is incorrect since all four gas giants have rings. Uniqueness requires Saturn having something that no other planet has and there is, really, no such characteristic.
Name of all planet around the earth?
Venus and Mercury are between the Earth and the Sun. Mars is between the Earth and the asteroid belt, and Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune are on the other side of the asteroid belt from the Earth.
Can you stand on Saturns ring around it?
no you are not able to stand on Saturn's rings because they are made up of asteroids and other objects unless you were standing on an asteroid
What is a small rocky particle that moves through space and most often is about the size of a grain of sand?
A small rocky object that orbits the Sun is an asteroid. The Asteroid Belt, a collection of many asteroids, is located between Mars and Jupiter.
What are the five outer planets in order starting from the asteroid belt?
The first four planets - Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars - are located before the asteroid belt. The remaining four planets - Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune - are located afterthe asteroid belt. Thus, the asteroid belt separates the inner planets from the outer planets.
Is mars a inner planet or outter planet?
Mars is an inner planet. It lies on the side of the asteroid belt which contains Earth, Venus, and Mercury. On the other side of the Asteroid Belt are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto - which is no longer considered to be a planet, but a dwarf planet. These are the outer planets.
What is different about Saturn then the other planets?
I think the obvious one is the ring of ice around it and its size and diameter.The very distinct difference between Saturn and all the other planets is it has an Asteroid ring / belt.Saturn has its own asteroid belt and no other planet does.Saturn has a ring around it.
