   How big is Saturn compared to Earth?

   • With an equatorial diameter of about 74,897 miles (120,500 kilometers), Saturn is 9 times wider than Earth. If Earth were the size of a nickel, Saturn would be about as big as a volleyball. From an average distance of 886 million miles (1.4 billion kilometers), Saturn is 9.5 astronomical units away from the Sun.

   Which planet is bigger than Saturn?

   • The only planet that is bigger than Saturn in the Solar system is Jupiter. The cores of both planets have a similar, rocky composition. The gravity of Earth and Saturn is very similar, in fact, at the equator, Saturn’s gravity is even lower than Earth’s. This sounds a bit strange because Saturn is so big.

   Does Saturn have a surface?

   • Saturn can’t have any since it doesn’t have a surface. Saturn is a lot colder than Earth. The average temperature on the outer layers is -140°C (-220°F). Earth’s average temperature on the surface is 14°C (57°F) Earth is much more dense than Saturn. As a matter of fact, Saturn is the less dense planet in the Solar system.

   How are Saturn and Earth similar?

   • Another region where Saturn and Earth are similar is gravity. Of course, Saturn has much more mass than Earth, but it’s spread out over a larger area. Saturn doesn’t have a solid surface, of course, but if you could walk on the surface of Saturn, you would experience almost exactly the same gravity as you feel on Earth.

   Saturn is much, much bigger than Earth. Its diameter is 9.1 times bigger than Earth’s, which is a big difference. When you account for that in terms of volume, it turns out that you could fit more than 700 Earths inside Saturn. The only planet that is bigger than Saturn in the Solar system is Jupiter.

   Earth is considered an “inner” planet in the Solar system. Saturn is an “outer” planet. This division is made by the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter.

   Earth is located in the habitable zone of the Solar system. Saturn isn’t. The habitable zone is the area around a star where planets can support liquid water on their surface.

   Earth is the most dense planet in the Solar system. Saturn is on the opposite side and it is the least dense.

   Besides their cores, Earth and Saturn have very different compositions.

   May 3, 2024 · The equatorial gravity of the planet, 896 cm (29.4 feet) per second per second, is only 74 percent of its polar gravity. Saturn is 95 times as massive as Earth but occupies a volume 766 times greater. Its mean density of 0.69 gram per cubic cm is thus only some 12 percent of Earth’s.
