Through telescopes and in photographs it looks for all the world like a solid ball. But Saturn is one of the gas giants, and is made almost entirely of gas. It's hard for us to imagine so much gas in one place that it can exert an enormous gravity field, but that is the case for Saturn, Jupiter, Uranus and Neptune. There is almost certainly a rocky core at the center of the gas giants, made up of rocky remnants from their earliest formation and debris falling into them since then. Uranus and Neptune may in fact be more like giant slush balls, since they are subject to extremely low temperatures.

∙ 8y agoJupiter is a gas planet made mostly of hydrogen and helium. The outer layer is simply made of gas. As depth increases, so do pressure and temperature. Deeper within the planet the gas gradually transitions into a supercritical fluid, a state of matter that is in between liquid and gas. Even deeper this supercritical fluid transitions into an exotic state of matter known as metallic hydrogen. It is currently unclear if this form of matter behaves as a liquid or a solid.

∙ 8y agoBecause there is no surface. Saturn is a gas planet. As you go deeper into it, the planet simply transitions from gas to supercritical fluid to liquid.
Saturn doesn't have a hard surface. In fact there is no surface. Saturn is not mountainous but they have said the moons are. You cant walk on Saturn's surface because it is not solid. Most pictures have shown that Saturn is a rocky planet.
it is not a solid. Saturn is all gas. nothing could even walk on it, let alone live, breathe
No, it doesn't and if you thought that you must be a retard
yes you could, but you could only walk on the rings. Because its a GAS giant you couldn't walk on the planet itself. Still i don't think you could unless they make a new and faster rocket, and a warmer suit. It would take aproximatly about 5 years (if they invent a faster rocket) to get there. the rings are about 150 ft. thick, and 180,000 miles wide. just be ready for a -326 degree journey!
Saturn doesn't really have a surface on which you might walk, so the following is a bit fictitious... Anyway, its equatorial radius is about 60,268 kilometers (according to Wikipedia); that would make a circumference of about 380,000 kilometers. Divide that by any convenient speed, to figure out the time. For example, 5 kilometers/hour, or (and considering that you can't walk 24 hours a day) perhaps 40 or 50 kilometers/day.

No. There is no solid surface.
No, and there never will be because Saturn doesn't have a flat surface to walk on. Just gas.
no it is made of gas
no u cant walk or do stuff on Jupiter because it does not have a solid surface.
No one has walked on Saturn. and since the planet is a so-called Gas Giant - no solid surface - no one ever will.
No, it doesn't and if you thought that you must be a retard
you cant
they cant walk
the undead spirits of people that cant find there rest.. and angels and demons
