Saturn is the sixth planet from the Sun and the second largest planet in our solar system.

Saturn is a massive ball made mostly of hydrogen and helium. It's surrounded by a beautiful ring system. It's the farthest planet from Earth discovered by the unaided human eye.

Saturn has 274 confirmed moons in its orbit, far more than any other planet in our solar system. In March 2025, astronomers confirmed the discovery of 128 small moons around Saturn — adding to the already large moon count.

Saturn's moons range in size from larger than the planet Mercury – the giant moon Titan – to as small as a sports arena. The small moon Enceladus has a global ocean under a thick, icy shell. Scientists have identified both moons as high-priority science destinations for future deep space missions.
