Saturn is the sixth planet from the Sun in our Solar System. It is the second-largest planet in our Solar System (Jupiter is the largest). It has beautiful rings that are made mostly of ice chunks (and some rock), ranging from the size of a fingernail to the size of a car. Bands of clouds move across Saturn. This planet is made mostly of hydrogen and helium gas. Saturn is visible without using a telescope, but a low-power telescope is needed to see its rings. Saturn has many moons.
