Is there anything living on Saturn?
Saturn cannot support life as we know it, but some of Saturn's moons have conditions that might support life.
What are creatures from Saturn called?
Saturnian is a name applied to any extraterrestrial species native to the gas giant Saturn, sixth planet of the Sol System.
What is found on Saturn?
Saturn is predominantly composed of hydrogen and helium, the two basic gases of the universe. The planet also bears traces of ices containing ammonia, methane, and water.
Can humans walk on Saturn?
If you tried to walk on the surface of Saturn, you would fall into the planet, suffering higher temperatures and pressures until you were crushed inside the planet. ... Of course you can't stand on the surface of Saturn, but if you could, you would experience about 91% of Earth's gravity.
Does Saturn have oxygen?
On Earth, it is a continual byproduct of plant respiration, and animals need this oxygen for life. ... But in Saturn's atmosphere, molecular oxygen was created without life present, through a chemical reaction with the sun's radiation and icy particles that comprise Saturn's rings.
Can we breathe on Saturn?
First, you can't stand on Saturn. It's not a nice, solid, rocky planet like Earth. Rather, it's made mostly of gases. ... With these wind speeds, even if there was oxygen in Saturn's atmosphere, you still wouldn't be able to breathe because the air would be sucked from your lungs.
Can you see Saturn's rings?
How to see Saturn's rings. Unlike Jupiter and its four large Galilean moons, the rings of Saturn are only visible in a telescope. Any small telescope will do for a peek, though about 150mm/6-inch is recommended for a good view.
What Colour is Saturn?
Viewed from Earth, Saturn has an overall hazy yellow-brown appearance. The surface that is seen through telescopes and in spacecraft images is actually a complex of cloud layers decorated by many small-scale features, such as red, brown, and white spots, bands, eddies, and vortices, that vary over a fairly short time.
Is there ice on Saturn?
Ice can be found in many places in our solar system: on planets, moons, comets—and even in the rings of giant planets like Saturn.
Does it rain on Saturn?
The sixth planet in the Solar System is made up of an immense gaseous mass, and its environmental conditions and chemical composition are so different from that of planet Earth that the rain is not made up of water, but diamonds. ... About 10 million tons of diamond rain down on Saturn each year.
Does Saturn have a nickname?
Saturn: Facts About the Ringed Planet. ... Although the other gas giants in the solar system — Jupiter, Uranus and Neptune — also have rings, Saturn's rings are particularly prominent, earning it the nickname the "Ringed Planet."
What happens if you fell into Saturn?
The outer part of Saturn is made of gas and the very top layers have about the same pressure as the air does on Earth. So, if you tried to walk on this part of Saturn, you would sink through its atmosphere. Saturn's atmosphere is very thick and its pressure increases the deeper you go.
Does it rain diamonds on Saturn?
New research by scientists apparently shows that it rains diamonds on Jupiter and Saturn. ... According to the research lightning storms on the planets turn methane into soot which hardens into chunks of graphite and then diamonds as it falls.
Has Saturn explored?
The exploration of Saturn has been solely performed by crewless probes. Three missions were flybys, which formed an extended foundation of knowledge about the system. The Cassini–Huygens spacecraft, launched in 1997, was in orbit from 2004 to 2017.
