Station 6 of the Melle Planetary Path: komoot.de/tour/1364935727
Saturn, the second largest planet in our solar system, impresses with a radius of around 60,000 kilometers. It owes its characteristic appearance as a “ringed planet” to a striking ring system that has been observed since the invention of the telescope.
It is almost twice as far from the sun as Jupiter and takes almost 30 years to complete one orbit. Every 20 years, Jupiter and Saturn come close to each other when viewed from Earth, creating a striking patch of light in the night sky.
