Detailed explanation-1: -Saturn’s volume is greater than 760 Earths, and it is the second most massive planet in the solar system, about 95 times Earth’s mass. The Ringed Planet is the least dense of all the planets and is the only one less dense than water. If there were a bathtub big enough to hold it, Saturn would float.
Detailed explanation-2: -Like Jupiter, Saturn is made mostly of hydrogen and helium. At Saturn’s center is a dense core of metals like iron and nickel surrounded by rocky material and other compounds solidified by intense pressure and heat.
Detailed explanation-3: -Saturn is mainly composed of the lightest two gases known, hydrogen and helium. It is the only planet in our solar system whose density is less than water. So Saturn will float while all the other planets sink!
