Saturn, with its large and bright ring system, is probably the most impressive planet in the solar system. However, the rings are extremely thin. At the scale of the planet's path, they have about the diameter of a CD, which would, however, only be a ten-thousandth of a millimeter thick. However, they do not form a solid disk, but consist of many small ice and dust particles up to boulders a few meters in size that orbit Saturn.

Similar to Jupiter, Saturn is mostly made of gas. However, this is much less densely packed together, so that the average density of Saturn is smaller than that of water. Saturn would float in a sufficiently large ocean.
