Saturn is big because it's a gas giant. It has no ground, becase it's all basically gas. The truth is, Saturn could have became a star, like the sun, in the early stages of our solar system. If Saturn only had a only about 100 more hydrogen molecules, it could make a radioactive reaction, and making another sun. That would make our solar system a very different place.
