Saturn has many amazing physical characteristics! Like its beautiful yellow-brown color, that I will discuss in this paragraph. Saturn's color is what it is because of all the gasses in its atmosphere, that also contains ammonia crystals. One of the very known features of Saturn is its beautiful, icy rings. The rings are made of water ice, with rocky particles and icy coatings. Saturn has seven of these beautiful, interesting rings. They have gaps and spares between them. A fun fact about Saturn's rings is that the rings actually extend 175,000 miles away from the planet itself! Another cool characteristic of Saturn is that it is a gas giant. Saturn's composition is mainly hydrogen and helium. It is 75% hydrogen and 25% helium. The whole planet, as we know of now, is made out of gas. But some scientists believe that in this big ball of gasses, is a hard, solid core. Another characteristic is the air, or atmosphere, around the planet. The atmosphere, much like the planet, is made out of hydrogen and helium.
