Why were planets closer to the sun not able to retain lighter gases?

Planets closer to the sun have higher temperatures, which causes them to have higher escape velocities. Lighter gases are more easily able to escape a planet's gravitational pull at higher temperatures, resulting in these planets being unable to retain them. Additionally, the solar wind from the sun can strip away lighter gases from planets closer to it.

Will astronauts ever be able to land on Saturn?

Landing on Saturn is highly unlikely due to its composition and environment. Saturn is a gas giant, primarily made of hydrogen and helium, with no solid surface to land on. Additionally, its extreme atmospheric pressure, high winds, and intense radiation make it an inhospitable destination for human exploration. While robotic missions may continue to study Saturn and its moons, human landing is not feasible.

How do Odysseus' men disobey his orders?

After sacking Ismarus, Odysseus tells the men to return to the ship with their booty, but they do not comply. On the island of the Lotus Eaters, Odysseus commands 3 men to go back to the ship, but they will not comply and have to be dragged back. After visiting Aeolus, keeper of the winds, his men, thinking there is treasure in the sack Aeolus gave to Odysseus, open it, unloosing the winds. After rowing hard passing Scylla and Charybdis, Odysseus orders his men to row on, but they refuse, forcing the ship to port at Thrinacia. When they had arrived on the island of Thrinacia, home of Lord Helios' immortal cattle, Odysseus made them promise to not do anything to the herd. At first they were able to keep that promise, but soon, because there was no wind, they were stranded on the island with no food and only the cattle to stare at. So of course, they betrayed Odysseus and attacked the cattle instead of listening to him. It ended up with the God Zeus punishing them with only Odysseus surviving.
