well of course not. Saturn is the second largest planet so the gravitational pull will be too much even on Jupiter has the most gravity so u'd be much more heavier on Jupiter, Saturn, uranus and neptune

The Planet Saturn does float in water; Saturn is actually made of helium gas, etc. You see, helium gas floats because its density is less than liquid water, so Saturn, the planet, floats on water, if you ever had a tub that large. LOL

Nope. If you managed to get to Saturn and you tried to land there, you'd sink like a rock into the mostly-gaseous atmosphere until you were crushed by the enormous pressure. We don't even know if Saturn HAS a solid core, but if it does, it's probably made of metallic solid hydrogen and methane.

However, Saturn as a planet would float on water because of it's density.

Yes. Saturn would float if you put it in water because it is very light, as it is made almost entirely out of gas.

Yes, but, assuming you could get that much water, which you can't, the gravity between the water and Saturn would destroy Saturn, and then its heavier than water core would sink. Saturn's average specific density to water is 0.69 g cm-3.

Yes. If you can find a large enough bath (and enough water). The density of Saturn is 0.687 g/cm³

If you were placed in Saturn's atmosphere you would fall. Pressure would increase until it crushed you.

Can Saturn float in the water?

If you could find a body of water large enough to fit Saturn, yes it could float in the water. The density of Saturn is at 0.687 g/cm³.


Which planets density is lesser than that of water?

Saturn's is.


Why does earth water and why dose Saturn float in water?

because Saturn has a lower density then earth


What is special about Saturns density?

Saturn's density is so low that it can even float on water, it has the less density in all solar objects.


What planet has density less than water?

Saturn. It has been said that if you could find enough water and a large enough bath, Saturn would float in it.Note: Jupiter is not the correct answer:Any object whose density is less than water will float in water.Density of Water: 1 g/cm3Density of Saturn: 0.687 g/cm3Density of Jupiter: 1.326 g/cm3


How does Saturn float in water if its so heavy?

Yes, Saturn's mean density is only 70% of that of water.


What is an fun fact about Saturn?

That Saturn's density is so low that it would float on water (if a big enough body of water were found).


Does Saturn have less density than water?

Yes Saturn has less density than water. Thus if you could put Saturn in a large pool of water, it will float.


How light is Saturn?

It's light enough to float on water


What planet is so light it would float in water?

SATURN.


Which planet is our solar system would float if you put it in water?

Saturn is less dense than water. So the Answer is Saturn.


If you had a big enough Ocean could Saturn float in it?

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.
