How was Saturn made?
Formation. Saturn took shape when the rest of the solar system formed about 4.5 billion years ago when gravity pulled swirling gas and dust in to become this gas giant. About 4 billion years ago, Saturn settled into its current position in the outer solar system, where it is the sixth planet from the Sun.
What is interesting about Saturn?
A year on Saturn is more than 29 Earth years. Saturn spins on its axis very fast. A day on Saturn is 10 hours and 14 minutes. The Ringed Planet is so far away from the Sun that it receives much less sunlight than we do here on Earth.
What is inside the Saturn?
Saturn’s interior is most likely composed of a core of iron–nickel and rock (silicon and oxygen compounds). Its core is surrounded by a deep layer of metallic hydrogen, an intermediate layer of liquid hydrogen and liquid helium, and finally, a gaseous outer layer.
What is Saturn’s life like?
The temperature of Saturn’s clouds are approximately negative 150 degrees Celsius (negative 238 degrees Fahrenheit), but the temperature increases as you go lower within the atmosphere. The low levels of water and the huge pressures found there make it unlikely for life to exist within the planet itself.
Is Saturn hot?
Saturn’s interior is hot! At the core, the temperature is at least 15,000 degrees Fahrenheit. That’s hotter than the surface of the Sun!

What class was 2nd class on the Titanic?
The second class passengers on the Titanic were what we would consider today to be the middle class. The travelers in second class consisted of professors, authors, clergymen, and tourist. Many of these passengers would have traveled as first class on other vessels.
What is the difference between the Titanic propulsion and Titanic II?
Propulsion would have been by three azimuth thrusters which would also be used for manoeuvring, while the replica of the rudder of the Titanic II is purely cosmetic, and would not have extended substantially below the waterline. The positioning of the azimuth thrusters necessitated the stern being made substantially blunter than the original.
Could the Titanic II have been completed by 2016?
The 269 m Titanic II would be the largest side-launched vessel in history by a huge margin, and would have required a significant extension to the shipyard’s facilities. Representatives from the shipyard had questioned whether the ship could have been completed by 2016, and emphasized that no contract had been signed.
