What is bigger Earth or Saturn?

Basic Answer:Saturn is much larger than Earth, as are all the gas giant planets.How large depends on whether you are comparing the apparent size or diameter, the mass or the volume.1. Linear Size: The width or radius of Saturn is 9 times that of Earth.2 Volume: You could fit 792 Earth's inside of Saturn.3. Mass: Saturn has 95 times more mass than Earth.More information below.Data obtained from NASA. See related links.Saturn and Earth Sizes:Mass of Earth is 5.97 x 10^24 kg.Mass of Saturn is 568 x 10^24 kg.Diameter of Earth is 12,756 kilometers.Diameter of Saturn is 120,536 kilometers.For all Planets:Diameter RatioDiameter ratio of Mercury to Earth (4,879/12756) = .382Diameter ratio of Venus to Earth (12,104/12,756) = .948Diameter ratio of Earth to Earth (12,756/12,756) = 1.00Diameter ratio of Mars to Earth (6,792/12,756) = .532Diameter ratio of Jupiter to Earth (142,984/12,756)= 11.20Diameter ratio of Saturn to Earth (120,536/12,756)= 9.44Diameter ratio of Uranus to Earth (51,118/12,756) = 4.00Diameter ratio of Neptune to Earth (49,528/12,756) = 3.88Diameter ratio of Pluto to Earth (2,390/12,756) = .187Volume RatioVolume ratio of Mercury to Earth (4,879/12756)^3 = .055Volume ratio of Venus to Earth (12,104/12,756)^3 = .851Volume ratio of Earth to Earth (12,756/12,756)^3 = 1.00Volume ratio of Mars to Earth (6,792/12,756)^3 = .150Volume ratio of Jupiter to Earth (142,984/12,756)^3 = 1331Volume ratio of Saturn to Earth (120,536/12,756)^3 = 729Volume ratio of Uranus to Earth (51,118/12,756)^3 = 64Volume ratio of Neptune to Earth (49,528/12,756)^3 = 27Volume ratio of Pluto to Earth (2,390/12,756)^3 = .006Mass RatioMass ratio of Mercury to Earth (.330/5.97) = .055Mass ratio of Venus to Earth (4.87/5.97) = .815Mass ratio of Earth to Earth (5.97/5.97) = 1.000Mass ratio of Mars to Earth (.642/5.97) = .107Mass ratio of Jupiter to Earth (1899/5.97) = 318.090Mass ratio of Saturn to Earth (568 /5.97) = 95.142Mass ratio of Uranus to Earth (86.8/5.97) = 14.539Mass ratio of Neptune to Earth (102 /5.97) = 17.085Mass ratio of Pluto to Earth (.0125/5.97)= .002

Can moons have atmospheres?

Yes, some moons like Titan (a moon of Saturn) have atmospheres. However, moon atmospheres tend to be thin compared to those of planets like Earth, and their composition can vary greatly depending on factors like the moon's size, distance from its parent planet, and surface conditions.


Is there any atmospheres in Saturn?

Yes; Saturn is primarily "atmosphere." It doesn't have a firm surface the way Earth does.


Do the gas giants have thick or thin atmospheres?

Gas giants such as Jupiter and Saturn have thick atmospheres composed mainly of hydrogen and helium. These atmospheres can extend thousands of kilometers deep into the planets' interiors.


Does Saturn have at atmosphere?

No, only Earth, Jupiter's moon Eurpoa and possibly Mars have atmospheres.


What planets have storms in their atmospheres?

Venus,Earth,Mars,Jupiter,Saturn,Uranus,Neptune


Which solar bodies have atmospheres made of carbon?

The main bodies to have atmospheres that include carbon are, Venus, Earth, Mars, and Titan. Titan is a moon orbiting Saturn. The gas giants, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune all have mainly hydrogen atmospheres.


Does neptune Jupiter uranus and Saturn have thin atmosphere?

Due to their large size and proportionately high gravity, the atmospheres of these planets are quite thick.


What planet has only a thin atmosphere?

Both Mercury and Mars have atmospheres that are much thinner than that of Earth.


What planet has only thin atmosphere?

Both Mercury and Mars have atmospheres that are much thinner than that of Earth.


Which planets have atmospheres?

All planets in our solar system have atmospheres, but their compositions and characteristics vary. For example, Venus has a thick and toxic atmosphere primarily composed of carbon dioxide, while Mars has a thin atmosphere mainly made up of carbon dioxide. Earth's atmosphere is mostly nitrogen and oxygen. Gas giants like Jupiter and Saturn have thick atmospheres composed mostly of hydrogen and helium.


How is the atmosphere of Saturn similar to the atmosphere of earth?

Both Saturn and Earth have atmospheres primarily composed of molecular hydrogen and helium, but Earth's atmosphere also contains significant amounts of oxygen, nitrogen, and other trace gases that support life. Additionally, both atmospheres support weather systems, such as clouds and storms, driven by temperature variations.


Could you list the planets in order from the thickest to thinest atmospheres?

The terrestrial planets in order from the thickest to thinnest atmospheres Venus, Earth, Mars, and Mercury. Since the gas giants are almost entirely made of gas, it is difficult to determine where the atmospheres end.
